It has been a hell of a two years since my mastectomy, weighted down with a heavy silicone prosthesis and one of those very modest bras meant to hide the slightest hint that you ever had surgery but that show when I wear the slightest v-neck, scoop neck or skinny strap tank top.
Because these sturdy, practical items are in need of replacing, I've started doing some online research to find alternatives to the very modest, cover-it-all-up options for post-mastectomy patients.
I'm extremely happy to share a blog entry I found, addressing my challenge:
Post Mastectomy Supplies by Hester Hill Schnipper.
She talks about various options, and links to a wonderful website called BreastFree.
BreastFree, in turn, links to many places to order lighter, different breast forms, cool tank tops, and all sorts of stuff.
I wanted to share this information in case anyone else out there is searching for new options.
