Bari-Buddy

Not sure if anyone else has heard of these, but my bar-buddy moose arrived today. A gift from my ex-husband (yes, we are actually good friends). Anyway, you use them post-surgery when you cough or move around, they have a firm, flat back to press against you abdomen. Helps keep you from feeling like your guts are gonna fall out.

    Yes, I'm sure a pillow would work. However, this is the perfect size, a neat souvenir, and a very nice way for someone to show their support. Plus, in this case, he got the Moose because we had (he still has) a Cairin Terrier named "Moose". :)
