Guest guest Posted February 6, 1999 Report Share Posted February 6, 1999 I thought I would let anyone who needs kangaroo feeding bags know that I have an abundance of them. We just recently moved into our new apartments and I found 2 large boxes of bags that I had put into a storage closet. Tryny gets a case a month delivered, so these are excess bags. If anyone out there needs them, just email me your address and I'd be happy to send you as many as you need. Debra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 1999 Report Share Posted February 7, 1999 Debra, I read your message and had to read it again....you have EXTRA kangaroo bags? My insurance company will not pay for them. They consider the bags disposable so they will not pay for them...syringes either. Go figure. My big thing is if they paid for the kangaroo machine, how do they expect me to feed him? I HATE OXFORD!!!!!! lol Anyway, if you really don't mind I would love to be a charity case and ask you for some extra bags. Here's my address: Steffi Plastina 614 Sycamore Lane North Brunswick, New Jersey 08902 THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!!! Take care.

Korey, Kangaroo is a brand of feeding pump, like you would use overnight to feed through a gastrostomy button with a slow drip. It is small, and attaches to an IV pole. The bag hooks on at the top of the IV pole (just like any IV bag) and you fill it with formula or whatever and the pump regulates the flow into the feeding tube. So they are the bags that go with that specific pump. They do sound like something that hangs in a zoo cage, though. , mom to (9). S. Hartshorne .Hartshorne@...

Guest guest Posted February 7, 1999 Report Share Posted February 7, 1999 Steffi, I know how you feel about insurance not paying for the bags yet paying for the machine. My insurance paid for my suction machine but not the tank that the stuff is sucked into. It's part of the machine!!!!!!!

Keep it in the refrigerator - it will eliminate bacteria. Also, I would fight them not paying for the bags. I would fight until I win. Get letters from the hospital etc, your Pediatrician, GI doc and fight fight fight. Good luck - we have been there.
