Offering seatbelt comfort to those breast and chest surgery patients at a time when very little is comfortable.
Maria Jiunta Heck, President of Green Gables Enterprises, designer and owner of the Breast & Chest Buddy™, was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009 and underwent a bilateral mastectomy. As every mastectomy patient knows, our bodies become difficult to maneuver immediately following surgery, and simple tasks, such as driving a car and fastening a seatbelt prove daunting and difficult.
Because a mastectomy patient may go through multiple procedures over the next 8 to 12 months, it is imperative to cushion the delicate area where a seatbelt rests daily. A pillow is not the answer.
Since no one had ever designed a product like this at the time, she would. Thus, the Breast & Chest Buddy™ was born. Nine years and ten procedures later and Maria still wears her Breast & Chest Buddy™ every, single day.
No one understands what a mastectomy patient needs like another mastectomy patient.
The newest member of The Breast & Chest Buddy family is the patent pending PortSupport.
PortSupport is specifically designed for portable catheter and chemotherapy patients.
PortSupport is a smaller version of the Breast & Chest Buddy, but also crafted with the best fleece fabric and foam and always, ALWAYS USA MADE!
Our patent pending PortSupport is so special because it features a cut-out, circular indentation in the foam beneath the slipcover.
Because we have designed the PortSupport with the circular area cut-out in the foam, it "nestles" your port-a-cath site, rather than sits atop it, which can cause unnecessary pressure and inflammation.
As with all of our Breast & Chest Buddy products, the PortSupport is ready to be secured around any seatbelt, right out of the package. Designed for bilateral use.
Many of our customers simultaneously purchase The Breast & Chest Buddy (to utilize immediately following surgery) PLUS the PortSupport to have on-hand when they begin chemotherapy.
Our Breast & Chest Buddies for mastectomy patients became so popular with open heart surgery patients, that we decided we needed a Buddy just for those special customers. The Chest Buddy for the Heart is available in a light gray and soft pink.
