What are you going through?
Pick the condition closest to your situation. Inside each, you’ll find writing for the night before, the day-of, the long arc, and the years after.
Mastectomy.
Diagnosis through reconstruction. Drains, scars, sleep, hugs, work, intimacy, and clothes that finally fit.
Post-surgery.
Hip, knee, abdominal, ortho, gynecological. The first 14 days at home and what to wear when bending hurts.
Dialysis.
Three sessions a week. The chair, the access, the temperature, the wardrobe rotation that finally works.
Chemo & infusion.
Port access, layered outfits, the cold rooms. What to wear, what to bring, what to know about side effects.
Caring for someone.
Partners, adult children, friends. The care package that actually helps. How to show up week one and month six.
Looking for templates.
65 free printable templates: doctor questions, hospital bag checklists, side-effect trackers, FMLA paperwork.
Mastectomy & Reconstruction
Drains, sleep, the first shower, the wardrobe through every reconstruction stage. The honest version — written without warrior language and “you’re still beautiful” platitudes.
Post-Surgery Recovery
Hip, knee, shoulder, abdominal. Pre-op packing through the day-by-day diary of weeks 1-4. The wardrobe choices that actually let you function.
Dialysis Life
Three sessions a week, 52 weeks a year. The wardrobe rotation, the cold-room layering system, the access-friendly tops, the 600 hours a year you’ll spend in the chair.
Chemo & Infusion
Port-access tops that don’t feel like medical equipment. The 4-hour chair, the cold cap option, the side effects nobody puts on the pamphlet, the day chemo ends.
Labor, Delivery & Postpartum
The labor gown that isn’t the hospital one. The 14-day postpartum wardrobe nobody preps you for. The C-section recovery plan most maternity books skip.
Caregivers & Care Packages
For partners, adult children, friends, and family. What to say, what to send, how to show up week-after-week. The mistakes caregivers make in week one — and the small shifts that change everything.
We made this for the people we love who went through some of these conditions. So you can retain as much of yourself as possible.
