Comfort at last!

I had a vats lobectomy over 18months ago and thankfully all well so far (apart from having treatment for anal cancer this year) but I digress.

Wearing a bra is painful because I have a keloid scar from my cats op. After much research and help from doctors to no avail I have found an easy remedy that other ladies might be interested in. Cut a panty liner in two and stick both pieces over the side of your bra to pad it where it runs the scar. It works a treat!
