Better idea, Earl: put a tv set in the bathroom. There was a nice club at the Emarcadero in San Francisco years ago which had small TV screens above each urinal and in each stall.
She should be all for it since then he would not have to lift the seat or drip on the seat and the floor around the toilet. Waterless or portable urinals are likely a good option especially if he has BPH.
I listened to an interview with Gavin McLeod and he was expounding on the delights of wearing adult diapers to make fewer trips to the bathroom. Bernie Kopell, his buddy, is also a fan.
Earl could still use a chamber pot and put it under the bed if he has to use it. When I worked for the County Inspectors, I received a complaint about a man who used one of those pots and emptied it out on his neighbors’ garden next door! What a stink of a complaint our office got from the neighbor! It was hard to get the man to stop using it and eventually, the case landed in court! I never heard what happened in the end.
I was making a delivery (and thus using the back stairs) in an old office building in downtown Chicago a few decades back, and encountered a urinal on a landing. Not a bathroom, a floor-length, console-model urinal. Right out in the open.
Hey Earl – offer to put on an open front toilet seat with no lid. Then Opal will never have to yell at you for leaving the toilet seat up. And, it would work like a urinal too!

You can get a permanent catheter installed. And then you’d realize getting out of your chair/bed and walking down the hall wasn’t so bad.

It goes in the BATHROOM, Earl! It’s called a urinal because you urinate in it. And CIVILIZED people urinate in BATHROOMS/RESTROOMS!
