Storing Ostomy Supplies in Hot Weather?

Topic Explanation:
The forum topic is about seeking advice on how to store ostomy supplies during a BBQ event in hot weather, as the original poster is concerned about the supplies being ruined if kept in a car in the heat.

Advice and Insights:
- Use a cooler with dry ice to store the ostomy supplies, as the sticky part can get very soft and lose its thickness in hot weather.
- Avoid letting the supplies sit in direct sunlight, but for a short amount of time, they should be fine.
- Consider carrying a smaller supply bag with essential items for convenience.
- It's advisable to have spare baggies with supplies in different locations, such as the car, backpack, and jacket pocket, to be prepared for unexpected situations.
- Always carry a change of clothes in case of a blowout disaster, as it can be a lifesaver in such situations.

Conclusion:
The forum provided helpful advice on storing ostomy supplies in hot weather, emphasizing the importance of being prepared for unexpected situations and ensuring the supplies are stored appropriately to avoid damage.
