Hi folks! I was unsure what to do, so I started this topic here.

I recently had a colostomy taken down, and a new one created. Because of these procedures, I was left with a supply of barriers and bags that are unused, but I cannot use for my new colostomy.

They are Coloplast Senrura Mio Flex light convex barriers and matching bags, size 15-40mm and a few barriers that are 15-53mm.

If anyone here could use them, because I know how expensive all of our products can be, please let me know and I will happily ship what I have to you.

I would rather know they are going to someone who actually needs them, than give them to our local wound clinic or hospital that may just throw them away or even charge someone for them.

Feel free to send me a message!

Hope everyone is doing well!

If you don't get any takers, you can always donate them to ostomy211.org.

I collect and distribute ostomy supplies to people in need. Sometimes on this site and sometimes in my local area. If you would like to send them to me, I'd be happy to take them and get them into the hands that need them.

PM me for my address.

There is another member from Fla. I think. She too has a bunch of Mio supplies to donate. I asked her to look you up and hopefully she will contact you.

I also have some wafer seals I no longer need. Will PM you for an address.

Thanks for doing this. Angels come in all sizes, shapes, and ostomies.👍😁

I can't seem to PM you because of the whole charge for membership.

But you can email me at trekgirl82@gmail.com and we can communicate that way.

Thank you for what you do!
