I had a really good day on Tuesday. I got new lingerie, a new boob and had a great lunch with some friends. I have not found a comfortable bra since my surgery. Let's face it, bras are uncomfortable when one has two breasts - try fitting a bra for one breast and a wanna be breast. I found out about a store in Joplin, Missouri, that provides all kinds of products to women with 'special' needs - from maternity to mastectomy. The shop was really cute, with the clerks dressed in bright pink scrubs, and the range of products was phenomenal. If you are gift shopping for feminine gifts, I would recommend this store. It's in the Freeman's Women's Center on 32nd Street, just west of Freeman Hospital.
The bra fitter, Lisa, measured me and showed me over 40 different styles. She provided some good advice and I was able to find three different bras that fit. I also got a new lighter-weight and more realistic prosthesis (fake boob). Lisa was very helpful and I felt pampered. The customer service was great.
My friends and I went to Sandstone Gardens and shopped and ate a delicious lunch. I had never been to the gardens (really a huge garden/home interior store). It was overwhelming the amount of merchandise under one roof! It was fun shopping and NOT buying! Mostly, it was great being with my friends Faith and Bobbi.
I am feeling good - only 6 more Herceptin injections - 6 more weeks of treatment. Thank you for the prayers and support. Blessings to you -
Love to you -
Ellen
