A New Kind of Prosthesis

[Mtngrl]

The marvelous and wonderful woman who runs my in-person bc support group sent out a link to "titbits." These are fanciful, comfortable, lightweight and whimsical breast prostheses. The site has instructions for making your own, and for other creative projects. It also has information about living with breast cancer. It's a treasure: http://www.titbits.ca/v1/tb_home.html

One of the cool ideas is to use a smooth river rocks for a weight, and to decorate the rock with calligraphy or whatever. That way the weight itself is a reminder that someone loves you and is accompanying you. I love that.

Knitty-titty!!! Sheila, I really had a good belly laugh over that one!

I had a laugh, too, Laurel! Even though the reason for having the knit-tits is NOT funny.

Looks like an inexpensive way to have a mostly normal looking chest again.

They really are cute, aren't they. I found her writing to be funny, too. That is a wonderful site with humor and the products look so much more comfortable than the foam or silicone prosthesis. Still chuckling over the knitty-titty bit!
