About Me

Judi Grove, co-founder of Breast Impressions, faced a breast cancer scare and learned about Keep A Breast Foundation on the Internet. She wanted to make a cast of her own breasts in case her diagnosis indicated a mastectomy was necessary. She needed the materials to do this, and contacted Nancy Coryell, owner of Anticipation Ultrasound Studio in Tulsa, OK. Judi and Nancy met, shared stories and the philosophy of the Keep A Breast Foundation. They knew there was a need to raise breast cancer awareness in Oklahoma. Together they started Breast Impressions ..Breast Impressions Casting!
