Does anyone have any suggestions for making the seat belt more comfortable? My husband and I have just had our first car trip since his urostomy surgery and he did great, but I think the darn seat belt contributed to a leakage problem! I have an emergency kit in the car but had forgotten to include the adhesive remover and powder--now that kit is better supplied. Thanks so much for this forum, we've learned a lot and it's made our adjustment easier!

@bagman I started using a list after I went to visit my sister and forgot the powder! Luckily I was able to find a pharmacy that sold it.

I have heard of people using pregnancy seat belt adjusters to move the seat belt lower towards the hips. Do you think that would help?
