I have two very expensive (size 10) bathing suits to use with prosthesis that I would like to give to a new owner that could use them. Does anyone know anyone that would like them. They were very expensive ($100 each) and I hate to throw them away.

    You could try contacting the ACS (toll free number) and ask. I know they have a wig program wherein they accept wigs but not sure about articles of clothing. Worth a try.

    Hi gayleyr. You know if you really like the suits, you can still wear them, just with nothing in the "pockets". I don't know if your new breasts will fit or if you just want to get rid of the memories. If you still want to donate them try your local coalition or even thrift store. I'm sure they'd love to have a specialty item such as that. Anyway, I'm glad you don't need them anymore!
    Take care,
    Susan
