Breast prosthesis to give away
Hi Ladies,
I have a breast prosthesis to give away if anyone is interested. It is by Amoena and is for a right breast and is called a Natura 3E, size 4R. It also says on the box, that it replaces Natura 3E 661. So, if that means anything to you, great, but if not, I was about a 14B before surgery, so not very big.
I am moving house, and found this while sorting through my things. It has hardly been used, as I have had reconstruction. It seems wrong to throw it out, so I would be happy to post it to any interested lady, or send on to an organisation that may donate them. Does such an organisation exist?
Love Chris xx

Lovely to see you back online Chris. Where are you moving to? Having a seachange? If you don't get a "taker" my friend and fellow BCNA Community Liaison Officer is gathering loads of things to send to Africa. She met a lady at the October Strength to Strength conference who lives in Africa. Included in the packages are old prothesis, bras, creams, body lotions etc. I can inbox you my address. Look forward to hearing from you. XLeonie

Hi Chris, I too have two gel prosthesis ( small size , number ones, I think ). I bought one in 1998, and used it for some years; wore the cover on it to protect the gel.
I picked up two new ones after the second lumpectomy in 2003. They were subsidised by Medicare. I mostly wear a T shirt, contour type, underwire bra these days, so Ok without a prosthesis, mostly. I used to be a 12 C.
Now, I am sort of a 14 B... I do not like the bra straps too tight at the back to help with lymph drainage.
I have the two prosthesis, if I wear a non padded bra..etc.
I was thinking the other day.. " Perhaps I could donate the prosthesis? "
Not sure.. I MAY use them again... What do you think?
Kathy.
