Hello Sharon,
I don't remember if I replied to your previous post.
I can't stress enough. Get the V-brace from http://www.fembrace.com. Please
for your mothers sake. It will really help her. I's worth every penny.
I myself have already reordered another V-brace and also some additional
panties. It's a life saver for me.
Good luck.
