SUPPORT SOFTEE®
The SUPPORT SOFTEE®, ahhhhh - this is my own personal favorite SOFTEE® style. Midriff in length with double elastic bands for light lift, it always stays put. The SUPPORT SOFTEE® does not require tucking into trousers or skirt, so I find it cooler for summer. Even minus the weight and fullness of a natural breast, there is no riding up or shifting of the SOFTEE® lightweight breast forms. This style as well as all of our SOFTEE® prosthetic camisoles should fit and feel snug, like a hug to offer a secure and smooth fit. I appreciate the comfort and freedom of wearing the SUPPORT SOFTEE® when I am working in the office, gardening outside, when I am lounging about the house or visiting with friends. The SOFTEE® restores shape, is soft against my skin, is cozy and non-binding, I couldn't ask for more!

Active Tee™ Soft Bra
This unique pocketed design is perfect for sleep, lounging and recreation. Unlike most Spandex sports bra varieties, the versatile Active Tee™ Soft Bra offers no compression so will not minimize fullness. Made from a breathable, soft cotton blend knit, the faric is woven especially for Ladies First products. This is the comfort and leisure bra every post surgery woman dreams of and deserves to call her own. Wide lace shoulder straps sit gently on the shoulders and provide all over stretch for stepping into and pulling up. The Active Tee™ Soft Bra is available in white, beige, pink and black with sizes Small through XX-Large. The Active Tee™ in color choices is billed for reimbursement as a mastectomy or surgical bra and is one more option you will want to offer your customers.

SOFTEE®: What's Behind The Brand Name
For over 17 years the SOFTEE® post-operative prosthetic camisole has been comforting and restoring confidence to breast cancer patients. Designed by a breast cancer survivor, the SOFTEE® was the very first post mastectomy recovery garment and today continues to be the most recognized, recommended, and prescribed after-breast-surgery product available.
From the thousands of medical professionals, who recommend the SOFTEE®, to the physicians who prescribe it and the women who wear it, the SOFTEE® is a name they know they can trust. Created from personal experience the SOFTEE® was a pioneer by being the first product to address the immediate and special needs of the breast surgery patient.
When no one else understood the importance of emotional healing and restored self image to a woman's overall recovery, Ladies First and the SOFTEE® were out there offering soft comfort, restored shape, managing the post-op drains and helping women to feel comforted and reassured. When a product is designed and produced with this kind of compassion and integrity it shows in everything they do.
We are very proud of what we have accomplished during these fifteen years. Behind the brand name SOFTEE® you will find a dedicated company and exceptional people who have kept product standards high by remaining focused and committed to improving the quality of life for women diagnosed with breast cancer.

A Message from Linda
2006 was an eventful year for me, one that marked my 21st year as a breast cancer survivor. Unfortunately, a few weeks following this milestone anniversary I discovered a lump. Results of the biopsy confirmed that the breast cancer has indeed returned. It has been over 17 years since my first reoccurrence and second surgery, so I was as surprised as my team of doctors that after all of this time the cancer decided to start growing again. I am feeling exceptionally well, have a very positive prognosis and am completely confident that this current course of treatment will take me into another long and healthy remission. Meanwhile most days you will still find me here in the office doing what I love best which is the business of helping other women who are recovering from and living with breast cancer. Here is wishing all of you a Happy & Prosperous Year with best wishes for good health and many blessings in 2007.
