I will try and post as many as I can now, and, add to it later.  I know these sites helped a lot of the pinkies on here before, and, it might help some of you now that are going thru chemo.  I think they all offer FREE stuff for you.  If any of you know any other sites, please post them too.  If you've gotten something from the sites, why don't you post what you think of it.  I hope these sites can help some of you! :)

Franceluxe.com - Beautiful free silk scarf     Everyone loved these a lot!

Headcovers.com - Scarves, headwraps, hats, wigs and turbans.

Heavenlyhats.com - Free hats

Hatsforyou.com

www.thelydiaproject.org - Free bag with lotion and note pad

Hatsofftochemo.com - Free hats

www.goodwishesscarves.org - Free scarf or wrap

    That one site, the heavenly

    That one site, the heavenly hats one, was started by a teenager.  He was only 10 years old when he started the foundation.  Isn't that amazing?

    I'll try to post some sites too.

    This is really nice Ritzy to put this up.

    Sue:

    I checked out the www.fillaheart.org website for free pillow for mastectomy patients and they announced they can no longer mail pillows anywere in the United States:

    "We regret we can no longer mail our heart pillows anywhere in the Country."


    heavenlyhats.org is actually heavenlyhats.com. I couldn't find a website with free hats for cancer patients at heavenlyhats.org, but found one using  .com to get free hats for cancer patients.

    I Did!

    Dear Sue,

    Just received a lovely head cover scarf from Good Wishes and a lovely card signed by their staff.  

    I can't tie regular scarves as I can't reach behind me to tie them.  I have a lot of problems with my left arm, torn tendon, bursitis, neuropathy and lymphedema.  

    I had a lot of beautiful silk scarves collected over the years but I can't wear them on my head

    I sent my choice to Good Wishes from the web page provided:  www.goodwishesscarves.org - Free scarf or wrap

    Today, I received a lovely "yellow linen" head covering scarf, the kind that is already ready to plop on.  It fits too!  It was my first choice.

    Thank you Sue for posting those web pages, I hope others try one of these web pages.  I wanted to see what it was like before I posted.
