Feb. 12, 2009 - PRLog -- Dry Corp, LLC offers a better way to keep your PICC Line dry and secure while you are showering, bathing, or participating in any water activities.  It is very important to keep the area around your PICC line dry to reduce the chance of infection.  Also keeping the PICC Line secure reduces the chance of damaging the PICC Line creating the need for it to be replaced.  The DryPro® is a completely waterproof protector made from latex free material that fits snuggly yet comfortably over the PICC Line keeping it secure and dry while you participate in water related activities.

To Whom It May Concern:

I can't thank you enough for this product.  My daughter, Kalyn Faggart, age 16, has had a PICC line in her arm since February 2007.  Prior to the illness and the PICC line, swimming was a huge part of her summer.  We went through last summer trying various things, (plastic bags, waterproof tape, etc.).  Nothing worked and she was unable to swim.  A month ago she got the news that the PICC would be in for yet another summer.  Shortly after that, we saw your brochure in our doctor's office.  I brought it home and immediately ordered one.  This product is FABULOUS!!!  It has given her part of her life back.  She is again swimming regularly and will be able to enjoy it this entire summer.

Kalyn is battling Neurologic Lyme Disease and Babesiosis for which there is currently no difinitive cure.  In addition to the disease, she has also been in a scoliosis brace for five years.  She has to wear the brace 23 hours/day.  Swimming was huge for her because when she was in the water, it didn't count against the time she was allowed out of the brace.  As long as she was in the water, she could have as long as she wanted.  Not only was she battling the disease, but she was having to stay in her brace the entire 23 hours with only 1 hour break because she could no longer swim.  

As a parent who has already seen their child go through so much, to find a product that allows her to have this much fun and freedom again is a God-send!  No price can be put on seeing the thrill on her face and watching her play in the water with her family again.  She is currently progressing well in this latest treatment regimen and will hopefully have the PICC line removed by Fall.  She had already accepted the fact she wouldn't be able to swim this Summer again, but thanks to your product, she's gotten an unexpected gift!!!

I'm recommending your product to EVERYONE I'm involved with concerning Lyme Disease.  I'm taking the three extra brochures that came with our cover to our specialist in Georgia this week along with pictures of the product in action.  He has a lot of patients with PICC lines and I'm sure they'll be as glad as we were to find this!!  I'm also sending an e-mail to the NC Lyme Foundation, of which I'm a member, highly recommending your product.

I sent two photos....this was her first time back in the water swimming full force!!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!
