A home for unused breast forms
Comments

Hi purple,
I know a lady who is unable to buy breast forms etc. and told her I would email her a link to this site. I'm hoping you would have something she can use. She is a real sweetheart and I know she would appreciate it very much. So hopefully she will get signed into this site and get hold of you soon. Thx. Luv and Hugs, Mazy

mazy, thanks so much for passing the info on.. word of mouth is the best way to get the news put there!!!

This is such a great idea! Just a FYI if there is anyone that you don't have what they need in your closet of goodies. Advise them to see their local American Cancer Society. They gave me my first bra and prothesis for free. I also received my wig from them also.

River - thank you.
Purple - I have Christmas in a box to send you... probably 7-8 bras, 4 or 5 forms... I went to your website and kept getting a pop up. Please PM me your address so I can ship!

What a great idea. My MIL has used the same form for about 20 years. I was like OMG you need a new one. She did not realize that medicare would pay for it long with bra's. But in the meantime the local american cancer society gave her a free from and a free bra.

Nordy, I sent you a PM.

having sent a number of bras etc to purple - i can vouch she finds great new homes for them

Hi Mary Beth!
I'm so glad I found your posting! I just got a new prosthesis and was wondering what I would do with the old one so I went looking on here for help. I have an Amoena size 3 teardrop basic. It is well worn as I've had it over two years. I will try to get it to you ASAP.
God bless your work!
Linda
