Re: DianneS: choices after mastectomy

Regarding the prosthesis. I guess I have just gotten used to wearing them like a piece of clothing. Yes, I am happy to take my bra off in the evening. But most of the time, I forget that I am wearing them. When I am really tired, it all feels a little tight. This alternative works for me. Thanks to Debbie for starting a new thread on this issue.
