Breast Cancer Survivor Helps Others
Haralee Weintraub, a Portland Oregon resident and breast cancer survivor, creates Haralee®, a sleepwear company to provide comfort to women suffering from menopausal symptoms.
(PRWEB) March 12, 2005 -- Haralee Weintraub, a Portland Oregon resident and
breast cancer survivor, creates Haralee®, a sleepwear company to provide comfort
to women suffering from menopausal symptoms.“After being diagnosed with breast
cancer, I discovered a side effect of chemotherapy that continues long after
treatment…hot flashes accompanied by night sweats” said Haralee. “Prior to my
cancer, I was an active skier and hiker. I knew the benefits of various
materials to provide peak comfort. However, nothing was available in sleepwear.
So, Haralee®, was born.”
Hot flashes, night sweats, and high internal
thermostats are all conditions perimenopausal and menopausal women face. All
clothing and pillowcases are made of moisture wicking fabric that draws
perspiration away from the body where it quickly evaporates. This allows women
to have a restful night sleep. By using this material in the sleepwear, women no
longer have to feel wet, cold or uncomfortable,”
For more information,

every sale is donated to breast cancer research.
