Some months ago I asked if anyone who had a Baclefan Pump would talk to a
family of a new quad (Darl. Mom's name is Dana).
She was hoping I could find Buddy's e-mail address because she lost it.

Ouch, the suspender idea could be very uncomfortable? Of course, my solution
for the quad gut is a bodysuit, which is not uncomfortable for me, but is
difficult for my attendants. I've gotten so used to it that I feel
uncomfortable without it. And I agree with Lori, that one of the biggest
The abdominal binder is the best prevention to avoid the quad belly. If the
belly is already there I can see how the binder riding up can be a problem.
No suggestions from me though on the butt spread. Radical weight loss only

Hi Merrill
Weight has not been a problem for me-I weigh less now than I did when I
broke my neck-although some of that was muscling. Im 5 foot 6 inches, and
