The company is Trulife and the style is Impressions. Do you have a mastectomy bra fitting shop near you ? I go to a woman who herself had a bilateral mastectomy with out reconstruction. She is so helpful finding garments, etc that are comfortable. These are silicone but so much lighter : ) Very real looking in bra and clothes.

I wear them to business events...though I have one expander and the other side is FLAT...and some days I just don't care...so I wear nothing...My friend Stacy sometimes has DDs and sometime -A just depends on who she is meeting....

I feel more balanced and my clothes fit me in a more flattering way with my breast forms in. I am on my third style of forms and these are the best. Very light and very real looking. Let me know if you would like the brand and style. I too am not having reconstruction surgery.

I LOVE scarves. I wear all kinds of scarves around my neck. Cowls, billowy ones, little kerchiefs.
I have a prosthetic but rarely wear it.

NOPE. I prefer to go au naturelle. I was so uncomfortable all those years in a bra I figure I deserve to at least be comfortable! I do wear my light foamies when I'm wearing something more tight fitting or feel the occasion warrants it, but pretty much I'm coming to accept my strange chest and don't worry about what other people may think.
