Breast cancer survivor Debbie Barrett and her 27-year-old daughter, Allana Maiden, are meeting with Victoria's Secret representatives at the company's New York headquarters this morning to deliver over 118,000 signatures petitioning the brand to make a line of "Survivor Bras" for mastectomy survivors. Allana started the campaign on Change.org a month ago with the following message:
My mom is a breast cancer survivor — 21 years cancer-free! I'm so inspired by her strength and hope, and after everything she went through, it doesn't seem fair that shopping for bras is such a discouraging, time consuming and frustrating ordeal. Many women who undergo mastectomy surgery because of breast cancer suffer from body image issues. It doesn't help that they don't have the option of buying the pretty bras they wore before their battle with cancer, and specialty stores can be hard to find, forcing them to order bras online that they have to send back because they don't fit properly.
