Bladder Cancer Survivor Gets Life Back with URO Urinary Suspensory System
 

By Terry K.

I would like to take a moment and explain how the URO Urinary Suspensory System saved my life. My name is Terry, and I was diagnosed with signet ring cell bladder cancer 10 years ago when I was 64. I chose the neobladder instead of the urostomy.

I had significant leakage and the fix was an artificial sphincter pump placed around the urethra. By using a switch in my testicle, I could turn it on and off to go to the bathroom.

Well, three pumps failed and, each time, I came close to losing my life. So, I currently use a condom catheter and a leg/night bag. However, the frustration of bags sliding down my leg and pulling my catheter off was too much to take. I had no life and never left my home. My wife, who works in the medical supply industry and is 12 years younger, had enough. It was no life for her either!

 
Glowing Uro product testimonial from Terry K. which reads: We found the Uro Urinary Suspensory underwear, and I got my life back! Mo more bags pulling my condom cath off...It seems so simple, and it works flawlessly...I feel that I can regain a socia

Terry K was over the moon to get his life back with the help of our URO product.

 

We found the URO Urinary Suspensory underwear, and I got my life back! No more bags pulling my condom cath off. No more tubes twisting and blowing my catheter off. It seems so simple, and it works flawlessly. I put a new pair on every day, and they wash up perfectly. I feel that I can regain a social life again and have no worries of accidents.

I have used them for over two years and now, I use a distributor that Uro Concepts, Inc. suggested in order to get them covered under Medicare monthly.

This product gave my manhood and dignity back after it was robbed from the leg bag failures.

Please try it!!! I have a happy wife as well! 😉

Nephrostomy Patients: Your Urinary Drainage Bag Solution is Here!
 

By Celeste Bonham, Founder of Uro Concepts Inc.

 A few years ago, I gave a presentation of our patented urinary leg bag holder to the urological department at UCLA. The presentation went well, and feedback was very positive. (One comment: “Why didn’t I think of that?”)  A staff urology doctor, specializing in nephrostomy, stayed behind to talk with me and asked, “What about nephrostomy patients? Can this leg bag holder be modified to accommodate a person who uses a nephrostomy?” I responded, “Probably, but what is a nephrostomy?”

 He then educated me about the nephrostomy drainage system and explained that the catheter is inserted through the back of the patient to drain the urine directly from the kidney. He said that there was not a good system and his patients deserved a better quality of life.

 

Grandpa can happily cuddle his baby granddaughter without fear of leg bag mishaps.

 

After some research, I realized that the solution was merely a simple buttonhole placement in the undergarment, above the leg bag, which directed the tubing down into the pouch to attach to the leg bag.  By having a buttonhole on each leg of the undergarment, our product now accommodates a left, right or bi-lateral nephrostomy.

 

The URO Urinary Suspensory System can accommodate two drainage bags in the undergarment’s interior pockets.

 

Urinary Leg bag Holder Opens New Possibilities

Somewhere in this section, insert a stock image of a 40 to 50-year-old woman outside.

We now have nephrostomy patients in the US, Canada and UK using our leg bag holder! I have received emails from persons with a nephrostomy stating that, after using our patented leg bag holder, they now can travel, go to the store, have lunch with their grandchildren, etc. I get tears in my eyes just thinking how a small buttonhole can change a person’s life!

 

This scenario from a Canadian woman who discovered and began using our leg bag holder is what I have come to expect when I open my email:

 

A woman calmly assumes the lotus pose. No leg bag concerns here!

 

 “I am a 46-year-old woman who now lives with a nephrostomy on my right side. I lost my left kidney and almost lost my right due to vascular surgery in my legs,” she shared. “My right kidney was saved by a stent and all was fine until the stent that was put in was damaged either prior to or during placement.”

 “When the nephrostomy was put in, I became extremely depressed for I am very self-conscious of this bag of urine. Like your father, straps created circulation problems in my right leg. I am very excited that I found your product and thank you for giving me a glimmer of hope that I, once again, will have a semi-normal life. Since my surgery, I can count on one hand the number of times I have left the house. Now I can leave the house more and even travel. Thank you again.”

Lose the Leg Straps with the URO Urinary Suspensory System

Our new, patented URO Suspensory System was developed with the same attention and consideration for nephrostomy patients as it has for all urinary catheter users. This system protects the user with:

  • No uncomfortable leg straps!

  • No breakdown of skin due to abrasive leg straps.

  • No constriction of circulation to lower leg due to the leg straps (a.k.a. tourniquets).

Our URO Urinary Suspensory System is an “All-In-One” product consisting of:

  • a comfortable, unisex undergarment with inside pockets to securely hold the drainage bags,

  • two 600 ml vinyl leg bags, and

  • two 6” tubing to connect to a condom catheter.

I want this product to broaden the horizons of catheter users everywhere. Uro Concepts Inc. has partnered with a number of excellent distributors to offer our new URO Urinary Suspensory System.  The product is being set up in the various distribution centers across the US.

URO Urinary Suspensory System is Medicare-approved (HCPCS #A5105) at one per month.  Click here to find a distributor.

The URO Urinary Suspensory System was a HUGE HIT at Abilities Expo
 

By Celeste Bonham, Founder of Uro Concepts Inc.

 We had such a wonderful experience at the Abilities Expo in Houston!

 

Happy customers of the URO Urinary Suspensory System give a thumbs up at Abilities Expo Houston.

 

Not only did we get to share the URO Urinary Suspensory System face-to-face with the Texas disability community, but we also got to hear direct feedback from end users, loved ones and medical supply companies. We even had an attendee tell us that we were the reason they came to the Expo. That was gratifying and humbling at the same time.

 When we connected with a VP of a medical supply company onsite, he stated unequivocally, “This is a game changer.”

 And it is.

 

What a great booth set-up! We were very excited to share the URO Urinary Suspensory System with Abilities Expo Houston attendees.

 

Houston Disability Community Excited for Uro Concepts Latest Urological Product

With its comfortable undergarment, vinyl leg bags and tubing, the URO Urinary Suspensory System is a catheter user’s best friend. Unlike the constrictive, chafing leg straps (aka tourniquets), this system allows you to secure your leg bags discreetly in the interior pockets so that you can go about your day without worrying that the bag is falling down.

Even before we got to the Expo, I spoke with a Texas dad whose pre-teen son was getting grief at school because another kid saw his urinary leg bag when it sagged below the hem of his shorts.  But when he started using the URO Urinary Suspensory System, he came home and happily told his father that no one bullied him. I hear these stories so often from so many different people. It’s getting to where I have to carry tissues around with me!

At the Expo, we were so thrilled to introduce more catheter users to our URO product to improve their quality of life. We also got to assist people to get the ball rolling on getting their URO system through Medicare and Medicaid.

 

We made so many new friends at Abilities Expo Houston! These gentlemen were wowed by our URO product and the impact it has on catheter users.

 

Even people who do not use catheters themselves stopped by to tell us what an amazing product we had. Now we can’t wait to go to the Dallas Abilities Expo, on December 1-3 at Dallas Market Hall!

How the URO Urinary Suspensory System (and a Giant Shuttle Named “Sully”) Made All the Difference to the Copp Boys
 

By Jody Copp, Raising Wheels Foundation and Lawson & Calan’s Dad

 My name is Jody Copp and I'm the father of two amazing boys. Both of our boys (Calan 14 and Lawson 11) have a mitochondrial condition caused by a gene mutation of the PNPT1 gene, a condition so rare we are only aware of 20 other cases in the world and there is no known diagnostic name, treatment or cure.

 

Melissa and Jody Copp are holding hands with their wheeling sons, Calan and Lawson, and smiling for the camera in front of their accessible home.

 

 The condition has caused overall global delays and the boys are unable to stand or walk without the use of assistive devices. Lawson uses a power assisted wheelchair, and Calan now uses a full powerchair as their primary mode of mobility. The boys are the oldest of the known cases, so we've been blazing trails their entire lives.

Copp Family Roller Coaster Backstory: From Fixer Upper to Raising Wheels

Our family was blessed beyond measure when Chip and Joanna Gaines teamed up with Tim Tebow and his Tim Tebow Foundation to remodel a home to be 100% accessible for our boys, and our episode aired on the HGTV show Fixer Upper in January 2018. After the episode aired, Chip asked the viewers to also pay off our mortgage, which was done in 2 hours!

 

An overwhelmed Copp family with Fixer Upper’s Joanna Gaines is overwhelmed as their new accessible home is revealed.

 

Because of this life-changing gift, my wife Melissa and I made the very difficult decision for me to resign from my professional career as a purchasing agent for the City of Waco, and stay at home with the boys as their primary caretaker. We also felt it was our duty to pay it forward and help other families in our situation, so we launched the Raising Wheels Foundation, a 501c3 nonprofit in July of 2018. We are fully volunteer run, so our family is now on only my wife's income. We know we have made the best decision for our family, even with the additional financial burdens, especially during the Coronavirus pandemic when our family was quarantined for 2.5 years to keep our boys as safe as possible.

Enter Sully, a Titan-sized Shuttle to Accommodate Growing Boys and Their Personal Needs

I provided the background above so you know more about our family and our determination to fight for our boys' needs. Up until March of 2020, and due to COVID-19, we were a very active family. As our boys are getting older and bigger, their equipment is also getting bigger and we were quickly running out of room in our Honda Odyssey minivans.

The boys each have a service dog through Canine Companions for Independence and we had no way of carrying all the equipment, dogs and luggage required to go out of town. Long story short, with the financial support of family and friends, we were able to purchase a 2003 Glaval Titan II shuttle bus in June of 2021!  The bus has a wheelchair lift and has GREATLY benefited our family already. The bus is 34' long and we have dubbed him Sully (Monsters, Inc.) because he's a monster, but nice.

 

The Copp family poses out side their enormous white shuttle bus, affectionately named “Sully.”

 

We travel from Waco, TX to Houston, TX for their specialist appointments, and to summer camps and other events all across Texas. We try to give our boys every experience we can so they always know anything is possible if you want it bad enough.

Our boys are medically incontinent, so we can't just stop at any bathroom on these long trips to take care of their needs. Previously we had to stop and park behind a building, completely unload our van, take care of their needs in the back of the van, and then reload.

Therefore, we purchased Sully to not only be able to carry their equipment, but to provide room to install what we've coined a Life Assist Table, which is in fact an adult changing table. This table has finally given us freedom as we travel because we can take care of their needs without anyone knowing a thing, preserving their privacy and dignity!

 

Thanks to Make-A-Wish-Foundation, “Sully” the shuttle bus got a makeover including an image of the Monsters, Inc. character after whom it was named.

 

Last June, Lawson's wish was granted through Make-A-Wish to havebling Sully upfitted with seats recovered in his favorite color, fun lights, a TV and a video game option to provide the boys entertainment, as well as other additions to assist our family on these long rides to Houston and beyond. Sully means so much to our family and has been such a blessing to us already!

Grateful Dad Loves the Uro Urinary Suspensory System for his Sons

The reason I'm reaching out to Uro Concepts today is because we've learned that with these boys, it takes a village. After reading about Celeste's story and how the Uro Bag came to fruition, I just wanted to say thank you.

I found this product via an email from the Abilities Expo, an event we LOVE due to the new products and accessories we can find for the boys. We have made so many contacts at these events and many have continued to help us on our journey. There aren't many items I just have to try, but this was one of them!

 

The Copp family is decked out in Raising Wheels t-shirts, caps and wheelchair covers at Abilities Expo.

 

I believe a member of our medical team, Shannon Hill, has been in contact with Uro Concepts in trying to get this product through Medicaid for Calan. She asked me today if I would fill out the referral form and I did this evening. I know everyone is working hard to make this happen and, again, thank you!

This is such a wonderful product and I absolutely love the story behind the company. Necessity is the mother of all invention, and Celeste's father was lucky to have her care enough to not only help him, but also help others as well.

How Uro Concepts Reimagined Catheter Use
 

By Celeste Bonham, Founder of Uro Concepts, Inc.

I am often asked how a person who made her career in “The Industry” (entertainment, that is) came to find herself launching life-changing urological products. Though I could have never foreseen life’s little twists and turns, I couldn’t be more happy and fulfilled with Uro Concepts, Inc. and this path that I’m on.

Urological Necessity Became the Mother of a Urinary Leg Bag Invention

My father, after prostate surgery, became incontinent and the hospital discharged him in diapers. A retired military officer, he became depressed and lost his will for life. He set in a rocking chair all day and moped.

 

Celeste Bonham’s parents on their 50th anniversary.

 

He did not want people to visit. He was very sad. My mother, wanting to help him be happy again, learned about the leg bag system with leg straps. Once he started using leg bags, his will for life was renewed! HOWEVER, that darn leg bag kept falling down and disengaging and causing him embarrassment.

My mother, a great lady, ask me to find a way to hold the leg bag and keep it from falling down his leg. I complained, “I know nothing about incontinence or urine. Get someone else. I am going back to motion pictures!” She asked me again and again and again and again—until I finally said I would look into it.

 
Celeste Bonham’s parents are dancing on their wedding night.

What a beautiful couple! Celeste Bonham’s parents are dancing on their wedding night.

 

The first thing I did was get samples of every product on the market that was used by patients experiencing incontinence. I remember having a large box full of urology samples and taking it to my attorney’s office. I emptied the box on his conference table and said to him, “Have you ever seen an uglier group of products?!?” At that moment, looking down at condoms, leg bags, etc., I made the decision to improve this market and make better products.

My first product was the patented undergarment leg bag holder. I will never forget the wonderfully big smile on my father’s face—I invented the leg bag holder just for him. I soon discovered that there are many people having the same experience that my father had. I closed the script and entered the urology market with Uro Concepts, Inc.!

URO Urinary Suspensory System is Medicare Approved

That first leg bag holder was indeed a game-changer. Now, we are thrilled to introduce the new URO Urinary Suspensory System which includes everything you need to safely and discreetly secure your leg bags so that you can go on living your life the way you want to.

This all-in-one system includes:

  • A unisex undergarment with inside pockets on both legs to hold your leg bag

  • Two vinyl leg bags (600 ml)

  • Tubing which connects to the catheter

Medicare-approved (HCPCS #A5105), your prescription will entitle you to one system with all of the above per month.

 
 

Say goodbye to adult diapers and embarrassing leaks and odors. Say goodbye to those tourniquets known as leg straps. Your new URO Urinary Suspensory System will not constrict circulation to your lower extremities. It will not cause painful skin abrasions. It WILL provide you with a system to handle your leg bag while you go handle that hike in the woods, that stop by the mall or that trip to your granddaughter’s soccer game.

The URO Urinary Suspensory System is available directly or through a number of reputable distributors. If you’d like assistance from our team, please click the “Request Referral” button, complete the form and we will submit it to a distributor to process your Medicare or Medicaid.

NEW URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™ Lets Catheter Users Do Their Thing…LIVE LIFE!
 

Do you have a urinary catheter?  Maybe you’ve had it as long as you can remember. Maybe you need one due to an accident or illness. Maybe your recent prostatectomy, cystectomy, nephrostomy or one of the other “tomies” necessitate the use of one for a limited time.

How ever it became a part of your life, it’s here. Now what?

We introduce you to the new URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™. Then you will see how it can improve your lifestyle and help normalize your life.

 
 

Ditch the Diaper and the Tourniquet-Style Leg Straps

Let’s face it. Until now, options for catheter users were just not great.

There was the diaper which has all the allure of soggy underwear. And the odor? Well, let’s just use our imaginations.

The most common prescribed incontinent products are disposable leg bags—with constrictive leg straps (tourniquets) which rank right up there with medieval torture. They chafe the skin, causing painful ulcers. They constrict circulation to the lower legs, which is dangerous for wheelchair users, older adults, those with poor circulation, people in danger of blood clots, or…anyone, really.  As the bladder empties, the urinary drainage bags fill and weigh down on the leg straps causing the leg bag to drop down the leg and disengage, causing an embarrassing incident. To further secure them, you tighten the leg straps, exacerbating the skin and circulation issues.  Vicious circle!

The solution? The URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™!

Secure Your Legs Bags Discreetly and Comfortably with the URO Urinary Suspension System

This system works together seamlessly to help you get out there and live your life. It’s ideal for both men and women with all lifestyles. The product includes:

  • A comfortable, reusable undergarment with interior leg pouches that safely secures your leg bags

  • Two reusable vinyl 600 ml leg bags

  • Two 6” tubes with connectors which attach to a condom catheter

The URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™ is excellent for use with a variety of different catheters including condom sheath, Foley, Ileal conduit, suprapubic and nephrostomy (right, left or bi-lateral).

And for the pièce de resistance, it is covered by Medicare! (Code: HPCS #A5105). A prescription entitles you to one complete system per month.

The Catheter User’s Take on the System

More than 100 million urinary catheters are used annually worldwide, which means 400 were used in the two minutes it took to read to this point. If these folks could access the URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™, they would sound a lot like these happy customers…

After experiencing our product, one man with diabetes stated emphatically, “I will never use leg straps again!” The leg straps constantly rubbing against his thigh had caused the skin to break down and open ulcers to develop.

Another post prostatectomy patient triumphantly exclaimed, “This product is great! After surgery I could still live a normal life. NO MORE DIAPERS!”

 
A senior couple, bundled up for Fall weather, enjoy bird watching in the woods and each other's company.
 

“My Dad said anyone who is in the situation like him and has to have a catheter 24/7 or for any amount of time is crazy if they don’t have your product,” said a grateful son whose father was reaping the benefits of the URO URINARY SUSPENSORY SYSTEM™. “Just wanted to give a BIG thumbs up on such a great invention!”

This product is available through several top-notch distributors with just a few more clicks.

The only question left is, what are you waiting for?
