Pockets Of Hope Founder Katelynn Devinney Shares Her Story With Kathy Romano
According to National Breast Cancer.org in 2024, more than 360,000 people will be diagnosed with breast cancer.
Advancements in early detection methods and support continue to increase the chances of survival.
This week I was joined by a remarkable woman who turned a personal experience into a global mission of comfort and care.
Katelynn Devinney is the founder of Pockets of Hope, a nonprofit organization that creates specially adapted sweatshirts for women recovering from mastectomy surgery.
After her own mother’s mastectomy in Jan 2022, Katelynn recognized a simple yet crucial need: a comfortable way for women to manage post-surgery drainage tubes.
What started as a response to one woman’s journey has blossomed into an extraordinary movement.
This inspiring initiative is making a real difference in the lives of breast cancer patients across the globe.
If you or someone you know is facing mastectomy surgery, remember that comfort and dignity are just a click away. Visit pocketsofhope.com to request a free specially-designed sweatshirt or to learn how you can support this remarkable mission.
One in eight women will face breast cancer, but early detection saves lives. When caught early, the five-year survival rate is 99%.
Don’t wait. That 30-minute appointment could give you years of precious moments with loved ones.
