Today I want to talk about something really close to my heart: supporting breast cancer survivors through their healing process. A few years ago, my dear friend Leslie was diagnosed with breast cancer. Aggressive treatment, including extreme radiation, saved her life. But it also left her skin so sensitive that the pressure of a bra was painful. When she told me that the soft cotton of her Yummie Tummie was the only thing she could bear to have on her skin, I felt so happy that even in the smallest way I had helped her feel better and sent her a box full!! And I promised, “I’ll find you something to make you feel great again!” I was speaking as a friend, but it was the designer in me who rejected all the breast cancer tops I discovered: rough fabric, uncomfortable straps and short, impractical jog bra styles that fit awkwardly under clothes. Plus everything was all ugly “make you feel sicker” medical gear! Breast cancer treatments strip you down. I’ve watched too many friends lose their hair, eyelashes, eyebrows and breasts, in order to keep their lives. I decided to create something useful, beautiful and comfortable — something that builds up these brave survivors and honors their fight: The Survivor Tank. The lightweight Survivor Tank is made of extra-soft cotton, and has a built-in bra, with gently molded cups and pockets to hold prosthetics. The straps are wide, padded, and adjustable for maximum comfort. The cotton-covered Yummie Tummie shaping panel provides gentle support, even acting as a medical helper after post-liposuction/reconstructive surgery. You can size up or down to get just the right amount of structure. Plus you can step into the tank and pull it up – no painful arm-lifting required! Compared to the other breast cancer tops out there, the Survivor Tank is a peach to their apples! We very proudly donate 100% of the proceeds from the Survivor Tank to The City of Hope Research Foundation. This inspiring organization is both a hospital and a biomedical research facility, treating and healing people with leading-edge therapies. I had the honor of getting to know the City of Hope this past April, when I was a recipient of the Spirit of Life award. If you — or a woman you love – are in this fight, I hope the Survivor Tank can make a difference for you!
