Courage Tees

Courage Tees was created after I (Katie) underwent two years of chemotherapy for the blood cancer lymphoma at age eight. I had a port in my chest in order to recieve treatment, but had to lift my shirt above my head in order to get it accessed. I felt exposed, uncomfortable, and vulnerable. My mom took one of my favorite shirts and created an opening directly to the port. Finally I had something to wear that made me feel safe. That idea is now Courage Tees. With materials that allow for diagnostic testing and PICC line access and fun colorful designs. When cancer changes your world, we want to make sure that world comes with clothing that you feel safe and comfortable in. Clothing that serves as a reminder you are not just this treatment, you are still you.
