“We had the chance to use this Busy Breathers oxygen backpack after the birth of our fourth child. We’d never before had the experience of having to carry oxygen as well as everything a diaper bag needs, so we were thrilled when a friend handed us a demo bag for this company. Not only did it hold his oxygen tank, but also his diapers, wipes, pacifier, bottles, and everything else we carry for four children on the go! It was much more efficient and comfortable to carry on the back than the standard bag that is provided with the little oxygen tanks as well. And, it was versatile enough to continue using after we were done needing the oxygen as it didn’t appear to be any different than a “normal” diaper bag. Thanks so much for giving us the change to try this out!”

“My son, Max, was born at 36 weeks in the high altitude atmosphere of Vail, Colorado. We left the Vail Valley Medical Center with a prescription for oxygen as his O2 sats were below normal. Our home is at about 8500 feet up and although it’s normal for children at this altitude to go home with oxygen, it didn’t make our concern or frustration lessen. Max ended up on oxygen for 4 months. Every time we moved him, the oxygen came along for the ride. When leaving the house, it was as if we were toting another child with us. To make sure he was able to breathe easy, we would’ve done anything and everything for him, but the oxygen was definitely a burden. Had we been introduced to the Busy Breathers backpack, I am sure the burden would’ve been drastically decreased and would’ve allowed us to travel much more effortlessly.”

I was lucky enough to get one of the new Busy Breather backpacks to try out with my liquid oxygen tank. I use a high liter flow tank and the bag is big enough to accommodate my tank and has an opening for my oxygen hose. The bag has a wide base that fits comfortably on my back. The shoulder straps are padded and adjustable for whatever you are wearing. It also has a strap that goes across the chest that anchors the tank in place. My tank weighs 10 lbs when filled so it is nice to have the stability. The bag has several compartments you can use for water bottles, cell phone, bill fold, etc. So there is no need to carry an extra bag or purse, if you don’t need it. I also like the fact when I take off the backpack and put it on the floor, it does not tip over. That stability is really a plus because you don’t want to waste oxygen.
I love my Busy Breathers backpack and recommend that you purchase one for yourself or someone who needs one. It is comfortable, convenient and it is a great looking backpack. Try it, you will like it!!
Sincerely, Brenda Nelson

The courage you have is amazing – your little boy is fabulous. I would be happy to do tweets for you about what you have invented – so many people could use it – they just need to know about it.

Hi Heshie. I would be honored for you to tweet about my business and our products. Thank you!
Have you ever well thought-outadding more videos to your blog posts to keep the readers more entertained? I mean I just read through the entire article of yours and it was quite good but since I’m more of a visual beginner,I found that to be more helpful well let me know how it turns out
I would love to add videos. I just don’t have the capability right now, maybe at some point. I do have footage of a good friend of mine that was on liquid oxygen that is using my backpack but need to get it all put together. I do want to post some how to videos on Utube as well at some point. Did you watch the 9news video that is on the home page of my website? Our story.
Back in Feb 2008 I started oxygen therapy with home concentrator and immediately began a search for a portable-mobile means to leave my home. Oxygen supply company provided a shoulder bag and later a backpack-lasted 2 months. After weeks of web searches and 3 additional packs purchased I rechecked the busy breathers site and started to ask Michelle some questions.
Ordered the backpack in late May of this year and love it. I work out at a gym 4-5 days a week and carry a ton of stuff with me. The Busy Breather Backpack works like a charm, easy to carry and holds “all” my stuff. It also appears that it will last much longer then than previous packs of 2-3 months.
I am glad I took a 2nd look at the web site and contacted Michelle.
I am so happy that the bag is working out for you Steve! This is what keeps me going every day…on the days I wonder what I got myself into?! I love helping people and it brings a huge smile to my face knowing that by using my backpack you are able to continue to do the things you love and not have to worry about your oxygen! I greatly appreciate the kind words. Thank you so much for taking a second look at my website Steve.
