Review for Save The Ta-Tas Foundation, West Hills, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My role, is a survivor! I was 45 years old and trying desparately to get pregnant. I was going through my 2nd IVF cycle, ready to have my eggs retrieved when I got the call that my mammogram results were breast cancer. No baby and now, no boobies. Devastated by this double whammy, I tried desparately to find a way to laugh! (it is the best medicine you know). I'm so tired of having people feel sorry for me, first because I've never been married, second, that I have no children and now, that I have cancer. I never felt I would die, only that it was taking precious time away from my chance to have a child. But my family and friends I know were scared. For me, finding "Save the Ta-Tas" helped me lighten the subject on a serious condition for everyone. No one can say anything to a newly diagnosed person to take it all away, and that person can't say anything to take away their loved one's fears. But laughing and smiling together makes it all more bearable! My favorite quote from my favorite movie "Laughter through tears is my favorite emotion"... can you name the movie?!

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

I've purchased many products for myself and other survivors to put a smile on their face and help deal with this disease.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Collaborate more with the other breast cancer organizations. We all benefit from collaboration - excellant example is facebook!
