Colostomy bags desperately needed in Peñasco

Hi everyone, once more I come asking for help with something special. There is a 50-yr old woman in Peñasco who can no longer afford colostomy bags. I don't know what they cost in the States, but here they run almost $100 usd for a box of 5. She uses one per day. I know great things happen when we put the word out. I understand there are varying sizes, so here's a picture of the ones she needs.

Thank you all.

Rosy,I ordered 4 boxes off the site, that Greg posted, probably be in next week. Thanks for your post.
Thank you, Bill! You're awesome. I went to place an order and quickly got confused (big surprise there). Greg, can you help me figure out the size I need to order based on the picture of the package I posted?

Bill, in my office I have a lovely picture of you and Fabi taken at the Black & White ball. Next time you're in the neighborhood, stop by and pick it up.

To Greg & Joe (JGatthesea) and Bill (Lagrimas). You guys are awesome! Between the three of us, we've gathered 18 boxes of colostomy bags! That's 90 bags, which will get this poor woman through the next three months! Gracias, guys. When we delivered them to her, she and her husband both cried. At local prices they could never have afforded those bags. I messed up by not getting pictures of you when you brought the boxes, though. Senator Pavlovich's local liaison asked for pics. God bless you!

does anyone know if this person or others are still in need of ostomy supplies? We own a medical supply business and could bring some down when we come for fall break (october)
