The invention increases the mobility of patients who suffer from medical conditions that are characterized by very heavy tissue weight extending from the front of the body. These medical conditions include gigantomastia, large abdominal pannus, large abdominal tumors, and high multiple pregnancy. Mobility in these patients is generally severely restricted, and in some cases the patients are confined to wheelchairs or are bedridden. The device can be used in these cases to provide a relatively normal mobility around the home, hospital, or any ADA surface. One embodiment of the invention is a support frame which transmits tissue weight to the ground, and is comprised of five basic components-rolling wheels, a support frame, a lifting mechanism, a tissue support platform, and a brassiere or tissue sling.
