NEW GIFT DESIGNED TO HELP BREAST CANCER PATIENTS HEAL IN COMFORT ...

Local gift basket company, Conrad Creative, has teamed up with healincomfort.com to design a Breast Cancer Ultimate Gift Kit for mastectomy patients. This kit will provide up to 30 days of healing and will allow patients to heal in comfort and dignity after surgery.? According to BreastCancer.org, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer in the United States during her lifetime. ?Conrad Creative hopes this gift will help to make a difference in how breast cancer patients heal after surgery.

The Breast Cancer Ultimate Gift Kit is a one of a kind gift designed primarily by breast cancer survivors for mastectomy patients.? The gift includes a Healincomfort? post surgical shirt, the book ?Off the Rack? by Genae Girard, a pretty bracelet, gourmet tea and snacks, My Shadow Story by Cherie Mathews, a lanyard to use in the shower to manage the drain tubes, a Healincomfort pouch and lip balm.? The kit is in a zebra print gable box with the phrase ?Be Brave and Fight Like a Girl? on the front label.

?We are honored and excited to put together a kit to help breast cancer patients heal after surgery,? said Jenny Conrad, Owner of Conrad Creative.? ?We worked with breast cancer survivors when we designed this kit to ensure it had everything the patient would need,? she said.

The healincomfort??post-operative shirt is the foundation for the gift kit.? Cherie Mathews, founder of healincomfort.com, met Conrad at a Women Business Enterprise event in March and the two instantly made a connection.

?I had been looking for someone to help me take the healincomfort shirts to another level,? Mathews said.? ?Jenny and Carrie of Conrad Creative seemed to be a perfect fit.? I love their product line and I knew they would produce a quality product for me,? she said.

A breast cancer survivor herself, Mathews, designed several items for the kit.? The healincomfort??post-operative shirt, the healincomfort??pouch and a specifically designed lanyard for shower use.

The healincomfort??post-operative shirt is specially designed with super-soft, moisture management material to ease reduced mobility and discomfort as a result of a mastectomy.? Shirt Design and Benefits include:

?Velcro-like buttons?for easy dressing

?Internal pockets?to help with drains

?Super-soft, moisture management material, with hydrophilic (wicking) properties for state-of-the-art moisture management

?Tag less

?Roomy design?to accommodate the patient?s need for privacy

?Soft, light pink color?that flatters every skin tone and provides wardrobe diversity

The gift kit also includes the book, Off the Rack, by Genae Girard which is a must read for anyone diagnosed with breast cancer and their families.? In this illuminating, heart-felt and bittersweet humorous book, cancer survivor Genae Girard shares her personal journey through the raw pain of a cancer diagnosis to a ?new normal? way of vital living. She reveals her innermost thoughts with a surprising candor and unique, quirky creativity to help others have a fresh perspective in understanding this life-changing disease. There is power in self-education, taking control of the medical treatment process and being able to ?get real? in handling the scary stuff by keeping a sense of humor about it all.

?I am excited to have my book included in the Breast Cancer Ultimate Gift Kits,? said author Genae Girard.? ?These kits provide a physical and mental aspect of healing for anyone undergoing a mastectomy,? she said.

The Breast Cancer Ultimate Gift Kits are $100 each and provide up to 30 days of healing for mastectomy patients.? They are available on-line at www.conradcreative.com.? Companies have a chance to give the gift of healing as well through the ?Gift a Kit? program.? Call Conrad Creative at 972-822-6777 to learn more.

?For less than $3.50 a day people can make a difference in how breast cancer patients heal after mastectomies,? said Carrie Ingram, Director of Sales & Marketing at Conrad Creative.? ?Now we just need to spread the word,? she said.
