Ok, i still have the original model Thairapy vest machine sitting in my room. Not sure of the hourly useage on it, but I was far from a daily user of the vest, usually only used it occasionally (maybe once a month) when I was real congested. I tried calling one of the main cf foundations to see if I could donate it, and they told me no for some stupid reason (probably that it's old tech). I called up the actual thairapy vest company and they told me I couldn't donate it through them or even send it back to them due to it being old tech also. I thought this was kind of stupid, seeing as how i'm pretty sure there has got to be atleast a couple CF's out there who don't have good insurance/any insurance at all and would love to have an older vest to help themselves or a child. The thing works fine, and is clean.
I was thinking maybe someone off here would have an idea, or might actually need it. I would of course sterilize it just as a precaution, and as long as someone else paid the shipping, id send the machine, vest, and the tubes/foot pedal to whoever wants it as long as it's to use for someone who needs, and not to make a surface to air missle or resell it on say EBAY.
If anyone needs it, or knows anyone who does, or knows of any group that would accept it via donation, please let me know. The only difference between it and the second to land most recent model is that it doesn't have a pressure knob/feature. BTW it's fully paid for, and I can vouch for how good it can knock the crap out of your lungs...It used to give me a real good cleaning.
Bad news: My current machine seemed to break tonight. So now I have to call them and either get the newest model that you can travel with (something I wanted anyways), or have someone come out to my house and fix my current one. I don't use the vest that often because the oregano oil + other oils and being active keeps me generally clear, but i've been kind of slothy recently, and got a little chunky. I have a OC chemical weapons and expandable baton class tomorrow for certifications, and I have to be sprayed in the face, so I used it tonight to make sure I was clear so I wouldnt be spewing mucous everywhere after I get sprayed.
Anyways, please reply if you or someone else needs it, or know of some group who would accept it. If it was a tax deductible donation, even better, but not necessary.
