Laurie, who blogs over at Not Just About Cancer has a perfectly good breast prosthesis that she no longer wants. If you know someone who can use it, maybe you can refer her to Laurie.
Which reminds me, after my Boob Ball, I ended up with several fake or foam breasts (like the ones that come with the mastectomy camisoles), such as a pair of "knitty titties" (someone sells the knitting pattern for them online). If anyone can use them, please let me know and I can pass them on to you.
Seems like in addition to a drug repository, a prosthetic repository would also be quite helpful, huh? Hmmm . . .

Another kind of repository?

I'm with you, Dee. I have something like three or four boobs that I'd love to give to someone. However, given the fact that they've been sitting in their box for probably the last ten years, I'm not too sure of their condition. You'd think you could donate something like that to a hospital or somethin'.
Incidently, I was finally able to dispose of my excess drugs. My county drug pick up finally coincided with a time that I could drop them off.
I found this exchange for limbs - maybe they would be willing to also act as the exchange for other protheses(sp)? http://www.limbbank.org/empower/empower.html
Liz,
That's cool that you were able to drop off your drugs! So, that must mean that Wisconsin has a drug repository?
Hi Dennis,
I've been reading your blog and the book club replies. It's hard for me, at the moment, to read books on top of doing my other work. It's a good idea, though.
Hi Teri,
Of course. I should've known that you could track down some kind of limb exchange - I shoulda asked you to begin with! It's a great idea and maybe a place to start for exchanging prostheses!
Take care everyone - thanks for visiting!
