AECC January 2019

What a day! This morning Maria Bailey visited AECC in Carvajal, hoping to chat with an English speaking volunteer. Unfortunately that lady wasn’t at the Centre today, so Maria was introduced to the lovely Paloma Gomez. Paloma was very welcoming and was thrilled to hear about the work that we do. Maria had taken some sample knitted knockers, flyers etc and Paloma was delighted with everything. After a long chat Maria was taken into the meeting room where seven more people were having a meeting. After an introduction from Paloma, everyone was delighted to hear about our work. After 45 minutes, Maria left the Centre, dazed but very happy. Not one word of English had been spoken! A further meeting has been arranged to discuss how we can work together. Thank you Paloma Gomez, Paula Casas, Monica Caballero, Isabel Perez and Eva Fernandez xxx

Testimonials

Weight

I have had a double mastectomy… so can’t lose any more!! I am really excited about tomorrow and the first outing of my knitted knockers. The prostheses I use weigh almost a kilo, so you can imagine the freedom I will experience with the knockers. Thanks again.

What a difference

… Thank you so very much. You have no idea what a difference they (knitted knockers) make. They are so light and comfortable. I couldn’t wait to get home to try them on…

Buying bras

For the first time in nine years I’ve been able to buy normal bras.. The ones to use with a prosthesis are so boring and plain… I’ve now got them in lots of colours and pretty ones too, ones with flowers, prints. I’m so excited…

Knicker fillers!

The knitted knocker is so light and comfortable… Last night I used five pairs of knickers to fill my bra and give me some shape… These are much better. Thank you!

Size adjustment

… Thank you so much, they’re fab, and comfy, and it’s definitely a great idea to leave the back open to be able to adjust the size.

Tears of joy

I can’t thank you enough for this wonderful gift… I can’t stop crying, but these are tears of joy… I had no idea that these (knitted knockers) existed. I wish you could know the depth of gratitude I feel…

… a package laden with happiness

Hi, I want to first congratulate the great work you do and the help you give to a woman who has gone through a disease as hard as cancer. Today my mother has received a package laden with happiness for her with an importance that cannot be described with words! The prosthetics are made with so much love and care. Thank you very much.
