I also use a bed bag in my chair. I have a 4 point Velcro black wheelchair bag under my chair. It hides the bag great. I run the tubing inside my leg and then behind my knee into the bag. It gives me a better opportunity to wear shorts.. Before that I cut the connector off the tubing and then cut the tubing down to size and then reconnect the connector to the shortened tubing. This gives me less tubing to hide and an easier flow. I use 2000 cc Bard bags. Sean - C4, 20 years In a message dated 8/1/2010 5:30:03 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, [email protected] writes:
Eric, Like Lissette, my 2000cc bag hangs below my chair and unless you're looking closely, you cannot notice it. This is mainly because I have black material covering the bag had the tubing so it virtually blends in with my black wheelchair and wheelchair cushion. The black cover for the bag has Velcro closures so it is easy to put on and take off.

I do. I have a hole cut in the left pocket of all my pants for the tubing and the bed bag connects to a loop under the seat of my chair. I have black material that covers the bag and tubing. I never have to worry about drinking too much or the tube kinking. So much easier and more reliable than my leg bag days.

Instead of the little slit ones. They hold the leg bag in place better without bunching up. I bought a box of them before because I heard they were not going to make them anymore and im running out.
