The Story:
This woman resides in Mexico, she came to Dale City visiting with her daughter, when her daughter happened to read an article about my shop and what I do for women, she called me and I told her to come on by and I'd be happy to help! After meeting them both, I found out that the mother, who was the customer, does not have insurance. I fit her with the correct size bra's and prosthetic that work with her lifestyle and made her symmetric again. Because of no insurance, Breast and Body picked up the price of the prosthetic so she did not have to worry about the cost. As for the bra's, her daughter picked up the price of those for her.
"I know how hard it is to deal with the ups and downs from day to day. I know women are being diagnosed younger everyday and when your 28 years old it's a lot it's your image, emotionally draining, and not to mention the unattractive bras that they make. Then I met Bonnie at Breast and Body Health Boutique. I shared my story with Bonnie as I sat and cried she let me know I was still beautiful and I could get out of the depression cancer has caused me but I had to think positive I have to believe that I am in control, not cancer. When I walked out of her shop that day I made a promise to myself that no matter what anyone else thought of me or how bad I may feel from day to day I wasn't going to let that take over. Bonnie was the one with her powerful words and being the strong woman that she is to make me see I can go on and I can be happy with myself and you can too!"
"To anyone who has experienced cancer this is the place to go. Bonnie and her staff went above and beyond to help me deal with this surgery. What kind and wonderful people who understand what Christmas means. Thank you to all. "

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for the hair prosthesis - aka wig!! After I lost my hair due to cancer treatment - I just didn't feel like myself. However with your generosity and the new hair -it has truly helped my self esteem and I LOVE it! Thank you - Thank you!"
"My mom and I would like to say a big thank you for the bras and prosthesis you sent over to me in Ghana. As a growing teenager who only had one breast, I struggled with self confidence and insecurity. I thank God for people like you who are changing the world without knowing it. Your donation is a blessing to me and my family. It is our prayer that God almighty bless you, your family, and your ministry. May God enlarge your business and allow you to shine in all areas of your life. To your donors, I say thank you and once again thank you for blessing my family with such a gift. We are forever grateful."
"I wanted to take a second for my heartfelt gratitude to Bonnie for getting this bra to my knowledge.I actually feel really lucky to be able to wear the prostate bra as it promises comfort, safety, security and vitality for the wearer.
As the cost here in my country was too high for me to afford it, I am really grateful that I was given a chance to make my life feel normal again, as it is tough for any breast cancer survivor like me to lead a normal life. It definitely gives a feeling of opulence and well being, thus raising my spirit step by step every single day.
Thank you for the support and care you have shown making this journey easier and making it possible for me to experiance its comforts as would have been difficult for me to afford it.
Know that these gestures do not go unnoticed. I am as appreciative as can be.Once again, thank you for the wonderful gift. It will remain with me life long and hopefully one day I'll be able to support and encourage more breast cancer survivors to use this bra and enjoy the benefits as I have."
