We also provide Cancer Education, Cancer Coaching and we have cancer support groups. Our founder Catharine Janssen is a retired critical care Registered Nurse, breast cancer survivor, an active Rotarian, and a Distinguished Toastmaster, and now a Certified Cancer Coach. Catharine is also the owner of BRACAShirts (Designed for women to manage post-surgical drains). Our customers love our Bracashirts shirts with Outside pockets which are designed to help the care givers to have easy access to empty the drains which is ideal in the first week immediate post-op. Our Bracashirts Inside Pocket shirts are designed to hide the drains and provide discreet support when out to medical appointments or when out in public. BRACAGowns are ideal for immediate post op and for evenings. The drains are secure in the pockets and allow for immediate post op ambulation. Security at night as the drains are secured in the large pockets. Bracashirts are ideal for post mastectomy and post abdominal surgery patients who have surgical drains. Safety, comfort and fashion are also important, so we provided shirts that are colour fast, don’t shrink, perfectly tailored and beautifully embroidered. <\/p>\n
