dark ages.



"For women who have opted not to undergo reconstruction after a mastectomy, it is vital to get a good breast form and find the right bra, according to personal development and image consultant Judy Fearn.
"This is really worth pursuing," she says. "Keep trying them on until you find the one that works for you. You'll be amazed at the difference it can make to your silhouette and the way you feel about yourself."

I do love your new garment! Also love these photos. Kind of eerie to see the prosthetic breast, which to me looks so much creepier than the breastless chest or handmade (knitty titty) forms. Meet for tea sometime?

"I have come to believe over and over again that what is most important to me must be spoken, made verbal and shared, even at the risk of having it bruised or misunderstood. That the speaking profits me, beyond any other effect... for it is not difference which immobilizes us, but silence." Audre Lorde, from "The Transformation of Silence into Language and Action"
