An Easier Recovery is a company that was founded by Catherine E. McGrath. Catherine created three products that can help make a woman's journey through breast cancer treatment a little bit easier. Being a breast cancer survivor herself and going through surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, Catherine saw a need.

One of the products that Catherine designed is called The Jackie. Unlike the Johnnies we are familiar with, The Jackie is specifically designed for women going through the breast cancer treatment and recovery process. It's features include being very warm and cozy, having specially designed pockets for holding the drains and the Velcro buttons on the sleeve gives easy arm access for taking blood pressure or blood samples.

Another great idea is the Been There Bag. This bag is a great gift if you know someone who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. It is filled with things that a woman might need while going through chemotherapy. Some items include special mouth wash, lotions, tee oil and lip balm.

The final of the three items you can find on the website can help you keep your cancer paperwork organized. We all know how much of it can accumulate. Its always a great idea to keep all your information together in one place. Insurance paperwork, disability and Medicare forms, pharmacy and medicine information, doctor reports and also bills and receipts.

I know for sure that dangling drains are painful! I had to come up with my own creative ideas when I was diagnosed. Its nice to see someone addressing these special issues.
