In the earlier to moderate stages of Alzheimer's, while incontinence issues may vary (depending on other potential medical complications), most patients still have decent bladder/bowel control. However, as the disease progresses, incontinence is likely to become more prevalent. Alzheimer's disease is essentially a "disease of forgetting", therefore over time, the person no longer recognizes connections between brain and body. A patient may get to a point where he doesn't understand what to do when his bladder/bowel is full, hence incontinence.
When a person dies, since all control over the body is lost, the stools and urine are released.

Stool and Urine
Urine can contaminate stool samples, potentially leading to inaccurate results in stool analysis. The presence of urine may introduce bacteria or other substances that can interfere with the detection of pathogens, blood, or other diagnostic markers in the stool. To ensure reliable outcomes, it's essential to collect stool samples carefully, minimizing any contact with urine. Proper collection techniques help maintain the integrity of the sample for accurate analysis.
