Do It Yourself,
But Not Alone!
Serving the world
since 2009
To all who are newly diagnosed with breast cancer, family member, or a friend, we welcome you here.
We have devoted our efforts to provide you with the knowledge that has helped other women and men in their journey through breast cancer.
We do not offer medical advice, but we do provide links to other sources of information to help take the mystery out of your diagnosis, and hopefully help you with other information you did not realize you needed to know.
BCDIY Resources and Links and Support Site Map web pages are filled with many wonderful topics. Please take your time to "Do It Yourself" and allow us to help guide you to the many wonderful venues of timely information.
Above all, please know that you are not alone!
Gifts for friends with Breast Cancer
Some New Topics: Changes in our website corporate structure:
As of May 1, 2023 our corporate structure has changed.
It became obvious to us that the Corporate reporting required in California has become so difficult that we decided to dissolve our Corporation which has been a 501(C)3 charity since 2009 -- The website will continue unchanged = I have been the president & CEO of the corporation for 14 years and now will run the website as a DBA "doing business as" - you can always contact me thru the website if you have any questions. We have always made donations to other breast cancer related companies and we intend to continue this in the future. Many of our volunteers have moved on and it is difficult to find folks who will help making the items we have given to support surgical patients. I am now making all the products for mastectomy pillows and radiation blankets, so please understand if our supplies are limited, I will endeavor to provide support to all of you who have spoken to me before, many of you have become good friends from all over the country and the world. As long as I am able I will continue the website and continue to help any new patients in their journey through treatments and when the rest of their new lives begin.
I will always be "Your Boobless Sister" here in Californa -- Thank you for your support in the past , I look forward to talking to you with any questions or concerns that you may have. Marion Jonker -- breastcancerdiy@earthlink.net
