Founded by survivors, Breastoration ensures women can receive the most advanced breast reconstruction care by easing the burden of non-medical costs—travel, lodging, and other expenses that add up during treatment.
"Emotional, world-shattering realization that life as you knew it will never be the same again. Breast cancer is a long journey, especially for those unable to afford gold-standard microvascular reconstructive surgeries. Surgeries which can allow a woman to look in a mirror without a daily reminder of a disease which almost took away her life.
Our laws in Louisiana always and currently recognize that reconstruction and post-mastectomy care is a medically necessary treatment. It is not cosmetic surgery."
- Kim Sport, Board President Cancer Association of Louisiana
