Volunteer: Make Sassy Seatbelt pillows for people in cancer treatment (copy)Sassy Seatbelts provide comfort to patients going through Chemotherapy. When people receive ongoing chemo, they often have a port-a-cath surgically implanted, just under the skin in the chest. It provides easy access and keeps the frequent infusions from collapsing veins. Though these ports make things easier, they are often right in the spot that can be irritated by wearing your seatbelt in the car. That’s where these little pillows come in handy. They attach to the seatbelt with velcro & relieve the pressure on the port. Ingenious! The pillows are a perfect project for our volunteers who prefer to sew (or just want a way to use leftover fabric) and can be easily donated right along with the caps. All you need is: Enough fabric for two 7-x-4-inch rectangles (Since they aren’t touching skin, they don’t have to be super soft, but in the Sassy spirit, we recommend fun designs)Velcro – the sew-on kind, not with sticky backing, in a 5/8-inch width.Fiber fill stuffingthreadClick here for quick Sassy Seatbelt Printable Instructions (2 per page) Treatment centers will gladly accept these pillows just as they are, but patients might not understand how to use them. Plus, because immune systems are vulnerable, it’s always nice to have clean items packaged in a germ-resistant way. That’s where we “Sassified” them! We created these tags that you can download & print (3 per page). They have a little poem that explains how to use the pillow to “Sassy Up your Seatbelt”.
