Hi. I have a relative scheduled for a lumpectomy soon. She is going to have 1 drainage bag attached. I read somewhere about a special cushion that would help with the pain (lump on chest and 1 lymphnode being removed). Does anyone know what the cushion is called and is there anything else which would help her - thanks

Look up heart shaped cushions for mastectomy. Most areas have charities that make them.

They are brilliant 🙂

Ah thanks that's the one I was looking for.

I've had a look on Amazon but not sure whether they're cheap knockoffs or whether they would be OK to use with the lymphnode issue..anyone used them,?
