I thought I would do a post about what we do to get Lukie ready to play in the water. I never realized how easy it is to get "healthy" kids ready for swimming. Because of Lukie's central line and ostomy it takes a little more effort to take him swimming. He now loves to water and loves playing outside. We just keep a close eye on him to make sure everything is safe and secure.
Step one: Put Aqua Guard over broviac

Step 2: Wrap around his neck, shoulders, chest and tummy with Glad Press and Seal Wrap.
(It has to be press and seal wrap, regular saran wrap doesn't work)

Step 3: Repeat the same step as step 2 but use Coflex bandage instead of press and seal wrap.

Step 4: READY FOR FUN!
