Our BEGINNING......

SEVERAL YEARS AGO THE FOUNDER OF LIFE TACKLED, ELLE, RAN LATE FOR YET ANOTHER CHEMOTHERAPY SESSION AS HER SEARCH CONTINUED FOR SOMETHING THAT WOULD BE FASHIONABLE AND COMFORTABLE YET STILL ALLOW THE HOSPITAL STAFF ACCESS TO HER LINES. 

AS THE CLOCK COUNTED DOWN HER FRUSTRATION GREW, GRABBING SOME SCISSORS AND ONE OF HER FAVORITE DESIGNER SHIRTS SHE STARTED CUTTING AND SNIPPING. WHEN SHE WAS FINISHED NOT ONLY DID SHE HAVE A TRENDY SHIRT TO WEAR BUT IT WAS ALSO HOSPITAL FRIENDLY AND COMFORTABLE. THE HOSPITAL STAFF LOVED IT TOO AND THAT'S WHEN ELYSE REALIZED OTHER PEOPLE UNDERGOING INFUSION BASED TREATMENTS WERE PROBABLY HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.....

AFTER CONFIRMING THAT OTHER PATIENTS WERE INDEED SHARING HER FRUSTRATIONS OF FINDING SOMETHING TO WEAR THAT WOULD ALLOW ACCESS TO THEIR MEDICAL DEVICES AND LINES ELLE DECIDED AT THAT VERY MOMENT TO FIX THE GAP WITHIN THE CLOTHING INDUSTRY BY DESIGNING CLOTHES FOR PEOPLE WHO HAD MEDICAL DEVICES TO CONSIDER WHEN GETTING DRESSED AND SHE BEGAN WORKING ON HER IDEA. 


UNFORTUNATELY HER MOTHER DIED FROM BREAST CANCER A YEAR AFTER ELLE HAD BEAT HER OWN, HEARTBROKEN AND LOST SHE DROVE UP AND DOWN THE EAST COAST WONDERING WHAT TO DO, IT WAS THEN SHE REMEMBERED HER PASSION FOR FASHION AND THE IDEA FOR HER CHEMO FRIENDLY SHIRTS. LESS THAN 6 MONTHS LATER SHE WAS SITTING IN HER FIRST FASHION CLASS AND LOVING IT. AS TIME PROGRESSED IT BECAME MORE AND MORE OBVIOUS THAT THERE WAS A NEED FOR MORE THAN JUST CHEMO FRIENDLY SHIRTS, SO MANY OTHER TREATMENTS AND DISEASES LIKE DIALYSIS, LUPUS, ETC REQUIRED PEOPLE TO LIVE WITH PICC LINES, PORTS, DRAINS, ETC. 


IT WAS THEN ELLE STARTED FORMING A TEAM THAT COULD COME UP WITH PRODUCTS TO HELP EVERYONE, CHILDREN TO ADULTS, AND NOT JUST ANY TEAM BUT AN ELITE TEAM OF SCIENTIST, NURSES, PATIENTS, FASHION DIRECTORS, DESIGNERS AND MORE. WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN AND IT'S OUR HOPE WE CONTINUE TO GROW EVEN FURTHER. WE THANK EVERYONE THAT NOT ONLY BUYS OUR PRODUCT BUT SPREADS THE WORD ABOUT WHAT WE'RE ALL ABOUT.
