know how to use it

I can see though that some of you on this thread are trained professionals. For the rest, I want to remind you to know how to use it. Basic first aid and CPR classes are usually available at community colleges, fire departments, some hospitals, YMCA, and through the Red Cross. My wife and I made everyone in our family who cares for our 2 year old get certified and we remind them often about what to do in a bad situation. Its amazing how long it can take before someone even thinks to call 911. I my self saved a life at IKEA and assisted a police officer at an accident until rescue arrived (I held a womans face on, GROSS). My wife was first on the scene at an accident while driving on I-95 (she is an RN). These were just by chance, while playing off road offers up a lot more opportunity for injury. :thumbsup:

i need to get one there are some many choices

Amen to calling 911. I posted much earlier in this thread (I think) about how I took a CPR class through little league cause I was coaching; it was free. About a month later I used it to save my then 4 year old's life as he nearly drowned right before my eyes. And ya know what? NO ONE WAS CALLING 911! The 3 adults were all standing there looking at my son turning blue. Finally I heard my instructor in my head, who during the class, had YELLED at us to call 911 first!

4 days later he walked out of the ICU and has made a 100% recovery.

TAKE CPR! CALL 911.

And most importantly, WATCH KIDS IN POOLS!!!

An excerpt from my blog where I was talking about some first aid kits:

Then for my Jeep I put together a slightly more comprehensive kit using the Smittybuilt First Aid Bag (link is to Quadratech which has an accurate picture, the pic on Smittybilt's website is not right). This bag has a velcro mounting panel that straps to the roll bar, and a plastic buckle strap to help secure it. So I always know where the bag is, and if I need it I can rip it off the velcro and take it wherever.

I've stuffed it pretty close to max capacity with:

Adventure Medical Suture/Syringe kit (several needles, suture, syringe, not what I wanted but will do for now)
Various sizes of gauze, self-adhesive wraps, and tape
Various band-aids, and pre-cut moleskin
Cleaning items - irrigation syringe, q-tips, alcohol wipes, antiseptic wipes
Bug bite wipes (anti-itch + antiseptic)
Some headache, alergy, diarhea, heartburn medicines, eye drops
Carmex CPR shield (in the littly black pouch near the thermometer)
A bag of water, some M&Ms, and an energy bar
Instant cold & instant hot packs, not pictured, I need to rearrange how I packed the bag these didn't fit
Snake bite sucker - mine was cracked, need to get a new one

Note: The cat and fur mouse are not normally part of this kit!

I can understand carrying most in your arsenal but what use is the cat and why the extra bra? Kidding aside, your look prepared.:thumbsup:
