Hello
I live in Ireland and have two 11 year old sons who bed wet every night and would like to get a copy of Sr. Philomena Earle's 'Night Bedwetting' publication please. Can you please point me in the right direction as I can not get hold of it here.
Thank you
Luana Scully

I'm sorry Luana, but we are an historical register, not a repository, so don't have that information, unfortunately. It's a 40 year old publication, so I daresay there are some more contemporary publications about the problem available these days.
