Dear Elizabeth I would like for you to know I received my product today I have been wearing it ever since I’ve received it and I have found more relief with your sling than I have with anything I’ve used so far. Thank you for inventing these wonderful items. With 14 more radiation treatments to go knowing I have this product will make me feel so much better. There will be no more chafing! I have ordered another one and I can’t wait to get it. I will tell my radiation doctor about this wonderful product and I know he will refer it to the rest of his patients. I will always tell people about this particular item I think it’s the best thing ever. M.M.
I wanted to let you know that I have found a new use for your slings! I don’t experience skin irritation under my breasts, nor am I a breast cancer survivor… I am a large-busted mom of twins that exclusively nurses. Your product props my breasts up perfectly so I don’t need to hold my nipple to my babies’ mouths. It’s super comfy too. I would argue there’s an untapped market here for you to explore for large busted moms of both singletons and multiples! Especially for mom’s who want to go hands free! Best wishes and thanks; these suit my needs perfectly, C.S.
These cushions are the best. I have had trouble with intertrigo beneath my breasts for several years and have tried all kinds of remedies. Your product has been miraculous. The itchy, scaly rash and lesions have disappeared and I have had no further trouble. Wish I had known about your products sooner! Your customer service has been great too. Thanks again for your products and for your service. B.Y.
My daughter has Hidradenitis Suppurativa under her breasts…which causes extremely painful, recurrent boils/bumps that drain and can become open sores. She had been putting a rolled up cotton cloth underneath the breast, but it was unsuccessful and would never really stay in place. I knew she needed something (better), so I searched and I found you.
Before receiving the comfort slings a week ago my 93-year old mother was wearing a bra to bed at night to try to keep the area under her breasts dry and less irritated. Since then she has worn the double sling at night and the bra cushions during the day. In the short time that she has been using your products, her breasts have almost completely healed. The rash under her breasts is no longer red, wet and angry looking. It looks better and better with each passing day. She says the double sling is so much softer and more comfortable than a bra and she is so pleased not to be wearing a bra 24-7. We were just about at our wits end until I found your website. Thank you so much for bringing so much comfort to my mother. K.R.
I purchased one of your double comfort slings and it has absolutely changed my daily life! I wear it daily! H.Z.
I had a thoracotomy on my right back then a clamshell thoracotomy across my chest and a port was just put in for chemo and have tried 20 diff bras that don’t work at all. My breasts have been bruising my ribs from weight. My boyfriend went on a crazy good search on the internet and found your product. It is perfect!!!! I am really excited to have it! K.R.
……I am already feeling a tremendous amount of relief and my skin is starting to heal after just one day of wear. I feel like a new woman walking around. I wish I could be a bigger part of this wonderful company you have founded. You are helping women a great deal. Hopefully I can help you to provide this relief for the bigger, plus sized women out there. .A.M.
Good afternoon. In our radiation oncology offices we continue to refer our breast patients to your website and company as we have received wonderful feedback from them. Please send us some additional pamphlets and/or samples for our practice so we can share them with more of our patients.R.S.
I was looking on Amazon for a solution for sweat under my breasts and will be having radiation soon. I ordered a set of strapless cushions last week, and I really love them! I am now ordering the second set from you so I can wash one and wear one. K.T.
I received the sling today…I LOVE IT! I am receiving radiation for breast cancer. My doctor and the nurse at the radiation center recommended your product. T.B.
Just wanted to say thank you for inventing such a good idea. I’ve been using the double sling for 3 days now and I’m happy to report my painful red skin rash has almost completely healed already. The fabric is very comfortable against my skin and washing it in cold water is all I need to do. Once again, thank you. M.J.
Your cushions have been a God-send after my breast reduction surgery. Really, they eased the discomfort significantly & made life much easier for me in the 1st few weeks. I’ve given your info to my surgeon. Also, I appreciate the speed with which you filled & got my two orders delivered. Yes, I’ll review on Amazon as well: you & the cushions are that good! E.M.
I came across your website quite by accident as I was looking for some kind of cream to use to prevent rash under my breast due to perspiration. This will be my second pair and I LOVE them. They work amazingly and I have been rash free since I started using them. Thank you so much for this glorious invention!! W.M.
I cannot say enough good things about your product. It truly has been life changing. I could be a spokesperson for you! I post your site on every blog I come across and have even told my doctor about it. If I could nominate Elizabeth Silver for sainthood, I would! I thank her profusely for developing this much needed product. Thank you so much!! J.K.
I bought a double sling and strapless for my mother and now I am coming back to order more. She appreciates these so much. She used to keep a yeast infection all the time, in various stages of red, inflamed and uncomfortable. We used prescription medicine and it would get better only to come right back because of the sweat under her breasts. These work wonderfully to control that moisture and those microscopic fungi. Once under control, it stays under control. I hope other people will try these and get the same relief my mother did. D.O.
Thank you Elizabeth! The order arrived and I popped in the cushions – instant relief where I didn’t even realize I needed it! Can’t wait to show the dr & nurses this afternoon – will let you know their reactions! Thank you so much for this fabulous invention!! Warmest regards! G.M.
What a lovely letter! Thanks so much for taking the time to write back to me AND to ship the sling!! I never know what to expect when I write to an online company. In this case, you’ve gone beyond what I could have possibly hoped would happen. J.S.
I did a search to see what might be available to help with the rash I get under my breasts and your site was listed! The strapless cushions are very comfortable, and even lift my breasts so I have a better appearance in my clothes! I just now ordered a second pair as well. Thank you!!!! E.G.
Fan of the sling Thank you, AGAIN. Your product has been amazing for me and I have been bragging like a mad dog! K.M.

After 33 sessions of radiation, my skin began to break down. Perspiration under my breasts was painful. I experienced no pain with the sling and ” comfort” definitely was there. The sling truly aved the day. After the skin heals , I intend to continue to wear the sling while exercising or working in the yard. I am so thankful I found your product online. The radiation oncology department at my hospital purchased several for patients. Thanks for making a difference and have a great day! L.C.
My mother wears both ComfortSlings – the double sling at night and the bra cushions during the day. She is now completely rash-free and the area under her breasts is completely healed – even during the hot summer that we had this year. She continues to wear both products to ensure that the rash never comes back. They are so comfortable that it really isn’t an inconvenience for her to keep wearing them. I don’t know what we would have done if I hadn’t found your ComfortSlings. She thinks about you every day that she wears your slings and thanks you for your ingenuity. E.H.
You have a brilliant product! By using your product my mom had absolutely no problems with skin irritation following radiation for breast cancer. We couldn’t be happier! I tell everyone I know about his amazing product! Thank you for inventing it. M.H.
I have recently entered Menopause and have been struggling with a painful rash under my breasts. There is nothing available in the stores, other than prescribed creams and powders, which are not helping, to keep the area dry. I was searching the Internet and came across another lady’s experience and she couldn’t speak more highly of your sling. It fixed her problem, and now it has fixed mine. Thank you for giving us something to help with such a common problem. I wish you all the very best, and hope you reach all of us who need this. M.W.
I have used the cushions for a year now, and use them daily. They were a life saver last year when I struggled with repeated infections under my breasts. I am definitely your greatest supporter in Vancouver — I’ve told all my friends about them (and about the sling). I’m truly thankful that you created these. J.I.
I am a walking advertisement for you! I have told practically everyone I know about your product! It’s interesting that when I tell women about it they are so very excited and they all say the same thing…”I’m so glad to know it’s not just me!”
I live in Florida and was so dreading this summer. I was constantly dealing with redness, itching, breaking skin (which is so painful). I started searching the Internet for a preventive measure and found hundreds of sites that talked about treatment but nothing to prevent. I was so frustrated then saw a comment someone left about a comfort sling and am so thankful that I found you!
I have been totally, one hundred percent free of all of these issues since using your cushions. Your product addresses a huge need; there are tons of women out there that need to know about you. My husband has laughed at me and said next I would be walking up to strangers in the store and telling them about comfort slings! I sincerely thank you and you have my deepest gratitude. I will continue to sing your praises! T.H.
Hi Elizabeth! I wore the sling and cushions for about five months post radiation (24/7). It really helped with the rash! Your sling and cushions were lifesavers. Thanks for understanding – and for a fabulous product!! B.G.
I have been using two extra-plus single slings as soon as I change out of my work clothes & I sleep in them. I love the 2 single slings because I can adjust each one for maximum comfort. And you are exactly right, they are so comfortable I forget I am wearing them!!! I also use the single strapless cushions during the day. They have made such an improvement in my condition! I gave the pamphlet information that came with my order to my dermatologist in hopes that he can pass this along to other women with similar issues. He was very excited about theM and was very grateful for the additional “tool” that he could now recommend to other patients. I thank you for making of this product, I absolutely love it!!! J.B .
While visiting in Fort Myers, I broke out with a rash under my breast which then developed open areas (cracks) where the bottom of the bra meets right under my breasts. The sling is the perfect solution for me and I love it. My problem has completely cleared up but I will continue to use the sling at night and the pads during the day. I hope you are doing well and so glad you fashioned this sling as I am one happy customer. E.B.
I wanted to wear it long enough to think I could give it a fair evaluation. It is perfect! I feel extremely fortunate to have found your company and your unique products. I will not hesitate to recommend the Sling at every opportunity. D.G.
