After my mastectomies a bag of goodies was delivered to my room. In the bag was a camisole with pockets for drains and for padding for the missing breast. There is also a paper to sign stating the cost of the camisole is your responsibility if insurance won't cover it. Those suckers are not cheap: $59! I could buy a $5 tank top and add Velcro but whatever...
The bag also contains one of the coolest items ever! A heart shaped pillow! The thing is great for helping keep pressure off certain areas or as I've been using it lately, to put under my side where the rib hurts. I also used it to protect my side from the cat (er, sorry, the nurse) from walking on my drains. Whoever makes them to give away is wonderful!
