I hope that gift box is in the mail for Ron. He truly deserves one. And while you are at it....... our Host Jim Lubin, operates this forum and several others and pays out of pocket from his meager income. If I were to invade another's forum, I'd compensate the Host in some way. Just think... its a business write off. Best Wishes In a message dated 9/13/2013 3:54:40 P.M.

In the beginning the hardest part was figuring out where to buy extention tubes to attach to the catheter so I could urinate into a toilet without the need of a bottle. Then me and the OT found a suitable bungee cord to hold pants back. I found out bungee cords with plastic grab hooks are a must to avoid scratching the boys. Then through trial and error i figured out surgilube flip top lubricant has the perfect size hole to shove the cathe tube in a lubricate it, three quick passes in and out. Find a small bag and put your tubes, extention tube, bungee cord and lube and your good to go anywhere. I put a mesh carrier underneath my chair and the cathe bag is always there. Once a week I restock te tubes.. ron From: "[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) " <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > To: [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) ; [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) Sent: Thursday, September 12, 2013 2:10 PM Subject: Re: [QUAD-L] Fwd: Self-Cath'ing & Personal Hygiene Aids -- New Website Thanks Julie, but as a nurse you know already that most Quads do not self-cath. Granted, some do but most don't. Now if you are discussing Paras, most do self-cath and some don't. What do you have regarding Bowel Management products ...... for Quads?

I need your help to assure that they have the right product categories and right products. Please check out http://www.commedpro.com/ and let me know what you'd like to see there and also if you know of any tools developed in the SCI community, like some they have on the website already, that should be more widely available. They want to get this right and be a genuine service to the SCI community not just another web vendor. As a thanks for your feedback, whether you respond to this or not, and in honor of SCI Awareness Month I am offering 10% off of anything in the store. Please use coupon code QL913 when shopping. Thanks very much for you help and I look forward to hearing from you. Julie
