Traci, I'm surprised you haven't gotten any responses.

I watched the video but don't think it is anything I would use.  Maybe scuba diving, but probably not anything else.  

I have a pretty quiet colostomy and haven't had any difficulty with finding a time and way to shower, bathe, and think I could swim - haven't yet.

How did you plan to use it?  I was concerned about the loss of contact with air if used for extended times.  But perhaps I don't understand uses.  

Interesting device.

Yeah a year ago I wouldn't have known what to ask to find out I had a parastomal hernia. The only reason I knew about them is from this site. Thank goodness for this site. Otherwise I would still be clueless. If I hadn't though from stuff on here to ask my surgeon about having a hernia, then I would have never had the CT and I would have never known that she should have known about it a year ago.
