I am new to this group.  I joined so that I could learn more to help
my dad who has emphysema.  Dad is 78 years old, gave up smoking about
8 years ago and is still active.  I need some help in locating an
oxygen product.  We see people carry portable oxygen in a small
shoulder carrier or hip pack.  It has become necessary to have one
for my dad, we are unable to locate a source.  The medical supply
stores sell/rent "e" tanks on a small cart but this is not what we
are looking for...we want the oxygen just for the times when he will
be out in a high altitude (our mountain cabin) or at a ballgame that
requires a little extra activity than he is comfortable doing at this
time. He only needs 2-Lpm for an hour or two at most.  His doctor has
agreed, but does not offer a source, he will write whatever
prescription is needed.  Could someone tell us the manufactuer or the
name of this product?  Does anyone have a source in Southern
California?  We would appreciate some assistance in finding this
product.  Thank you for your assistance!
