Mary Pat Portshirt
The Mary Pat Portshirt is a garment designed to allow the accessing of implanted ports without having the patient change into a gown. The portshirt provides easy access to a central catheter, or implanted port for blood sampling, transfusions, or chemotherapy. The portshirt was designed by Mary Pat Grieshaber, a patient who lived with aplastic anemia and had an implanted port for 6 years. Profits from the sale of this shirt will be donated to bone marrow failure research. For more information e-mail [email protected] or call EJGAAF at (847) 559-0688.
