The Sissy Support Basket

Hi, I’m Julia, founder of Sissy Bags.

Every day in Australia, around 55 women are diagnosed with breast cancer — and in January 2026, it was my turn.

My breast cancer was picked up during my annual mammogram. It was hormone-positive breast cancer, and from that moment life suddenly became filled with words, appointments and treatments I never expected to be part of my story.

It has certainly been a journey — and definitely not one I asked for. So before I say anything else: check your girls, girls! And please don’t put off your mammogram.

Along the way there have been countless doctor’s appointments, scans, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hospital stays. And with all of that came so much stuff — paperwork, pamphlets, scripts, medications, appointment cards, test results and all the other “cancery things” you suddenly find yourself carrying around.

I needed somewhere to keep it all together.

So I spoke to our beautiful sisters in Madagascar, and together we came up with the Sissy Support Basket — a beautiful, practical basket designed to carry all those things you need throughout treatment. Something you can grab for a doctor’s appointment, take to chemo or radiotherapy, pack for a hospital stay, or simply keep at home with everything in one place.

But there’s another reason this basket means so much to me.

I found that when I was diagnosed, my friends desperately wanted to help. They wanted to do something, but often they simply didn’t know what to do or what to say.

The Sissy Support Basket is a way to do something.

Give it just as it is, or fill it with thoughtful little things — a beautiful book, cosy socks, lip balm, hand cream, a water bottle, snacks, a handwritten note or anything that might bring a little comfort and its a reminder that they don't have to walk the road alone 💗

With love,
Julia xx
