The bra thing

I hadn't wanted to talk about this but I know there are others who share my frustration.

After breast surgery and while undergoing radiation treatment, finding a comfortable bra in the right size with the right amount of support is no easy feat. And even now I still can't get the right fit.

I went for a fitting for a bride's maid dress for my baby sister's wedding. Found the right dress, but none of the bras fit. My two sisters and niece just laughed and shook their heads as I struggled with at least six or seven various sized-bras.

Nothing fit.

So I'm on the hunt again. I'm headed to a specialty shop this weekend to try to find something comfortable so I won't be self conscious as part of the wedding party.

Wish me luck. A member of my support group suggested breezies but I haven't had a chance to try those.

I'll let you know how it goes.
