Free Resources For Breast Cancer Patients
 
Hello, everyone,
I'd like to share information and resources for free services available to breast cancer patients. Does everyone know about Cleaning For A Reason? http://www.cleaningforareason.org/. This is an organization that will clean your home once per month for four months while you are a chemo patient. Of course, there is the Look Good, Feel Better program through the American Cancer Society and they give out wonderful cosmetics for you to keep from major companies, and many of the seminars also offer free wigs as well. Did you know that the ACS offers free rides to treatment by a volunteer within certain range limits and reimburses parking, tolls and mileage one time per year for $100? Also wanted to point out that ShoesThatLoveYou.com has been in the process of donating 50,000 pairs of stylish, comfortable shoes to breast cancer patients this month, and I've been happy to deliver them in my area to fellow chemo patients. Please let us know if you know of other organzinations that offer free/complimentary services and/or goods to help patients like us.
Best
Karen

On our home page, there is a heading for "Resources". There are links to many financial, legal, nutritional, support and other types of resources listed.

Hey Karen,

I salute you!! Praise God for you as a World Trade Center survivor!! I am so sorry you had to experience such a terrible thing. What a blessing you are to see such a great smile on your face after having to face two horrific terrors.

I too believe that there is a cure for cancer. Thank you so much for your post. Just reading your signature helped me get over a grumpy mood day.

I've filled out many similar forms before my surgeries. The following resource is accepted in 42 states and can be attached to the directives in the other 8:
