Hi! My mom is a breast cancer patient, she got her left breast removed and the good thing is that she is cancer free. But the problem she is facing after the surgery is to look the same. She is very concious of her looks. Specialy her breast and her hair. I wanted to know is there a place in new York or new jersey from where I can get her the special bras made for such patients and what can she Do for her hair which have grown back but not the same they are much thinner.
Thanks

Hi my grandmother is going through chemo therapy right now. She had a mastectomy done December 11, 2009. She is very self-consious about it, and we have limited income, where is the best place to find a bra with the prostesis, to help her feel more comfortable?

I just logged on to your site… very disappointed that I missed out on free bras for breast cancer patients. I previously had a lumpectomy.
Please let me know if and when you will be in the New York City area.
I would truly appreciate free bras.
Many thanks.

Hi I know of someone that underwent a mastectomy, she is a very poor person in her country, where can I help her get a free prosthetic bra?
