“When my niece had a double mastectomy, I thought the Big Red Bag would be a great addition to her recovery. As it turned out, many items in the Bag were very helpful. Whenever we needed something, I would dive into the bag and find an answer. I am grateful that my niece has fully recovered and that there was a wonderful Big Red Bag to help us along the way.”

ABOUT

THE BIG RED BAG

As a nurse navigator, breast cancer survivor, and mother of a TBI patient, the company’s founder, Sara Reges recognized the absence of critically important information and supplies for patients that were leaving the hospital but were far from being completely recovered. Her mission was to create a product that provides crucial tools and information to ensure a successful recovery at home. Designed and developed by professionals with diverse backgrounds in medicine and health care, the bag provides patients with comfort, support, knowledge and dignity as they prepare for, undergo, and recover from surgery and other treatments.

The Big Red Bag serves as a symbol of support, embodying the bravery of those we’ve lost and the resilience of those we aim to assist. It’s more than just a recovery kit; it represents a legacy of care, strength, and unwavering support. The name “Big Red Bag” is a heartfelt tribute to Sara’s mother, affectionately known as Big Red, who courageously faced the challenges of recovering from a stroke. After her passing, naming the bag in her honor became a way to celebrate her spirit and resilience.

The drain care instructions and organizer saved my mother. When she was in the hospital, the discharge nurses gave us instructions, but my mother was still under the influence of pain meds and did not register everything that they told her. I used the pad to write down some notes and then we went to the bfflco.com website. What a lifesaver.

I cannot tell you how wonderful it was to receive the bag prior to my surgeries for breast cancer. I love my pillow, the duffel bag is awesome and all the wonderful supplies, from creams to notebooks to card holders and bandages, made the whole experience of treatment so much easier. I have struggled with what to do for someone else with a cancer diagnosis, but now I know….Great gift of love from one friend to another!

This is by far the best gift I received. I didn’t have to worry about packing my hospital bag. Loved the icepacks, by the way, and their disposable sleeves… pure genius.

Just to let you know, the bag arrived today and I love it! It is so cute and practical! When I ordered it I was preparing myself for a purely prophylactic bilateral mastectomy. Yesterday I received a breast cancer diagnosis. So receiving the bag via FedEx delivery was a real treat. Thanks again.
