CastCoverz! and Owner, Annette Giacomazzi, Survive Breast Cancer

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!

CastCoverz! owner and founder, Annette Giacomazzi, shares this piece of advice to those battling breast cancer, “Intentionally eliminate everything that is non-essential and increase what is meaningful.”  Annette was diagnosed with breast cancer the very same year she launched CCZ!  She is a survivor and thriver!

Even though CastCoverz! products are intended for orthopedic patients, breast cancer patients can benefit from our Slingz! and Tubez! products, too!  To help those recovering from breast cancer surgery, Slingz! will hold your arm securely and comfortably in place and come with a thumb loop, preventing wrist drop, along with an oh-so-cozy black “faux fur” tube on the strap for ultimate neck comfort.  If you have a PICC line you’d like to hide, try a Tubez! cover.  Both Slingz! and Tubez! come in a wide variety of designer fabrics, from fun prints and solids, to elegant and even breast cancer awareness fabrics!

For our third year, and in honor of our owner and founder, 10% of CastCoverz!‘s October net proceeds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen fund.

CastCoverz! owner and founder, Annette Giacomazzi, was honorably chosen and we’re proud to share her story and a few of her breast cancer survivor tips in Survivor Stories:  Annette Giacomazzi

In this spotlight, Good Enough Mother asked Annette:  “If you could send one message to all the Good Enough Mothers out there, what would it be?”  She answered, “Intentionally eliminate everything that is non-essential and increase what is meaningful.”

In support of all those who are fighting the fight and those fighting to find a cure, CastCoverz! will be donating 10% of the net proceeds for the entire month of October to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure fund.  Annette Giacomazzi launched CCZ! the same year she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  She is definitely a survivor and a thriver!

CastCoverz! offers functional and fashionable products designed to cover casts, orthotic walking boots, splints and braces, and companion products to bring relief and comfot to orthopedic patients.  No matter what your othopedic event is, we’ve got you covered!
