How do you help others with Cancer?
I am sure you have all experienced this. People ask me to talk to their friends or loved ones when they are dx with cancer. Any kind of cancer.
I am always happy to take the call. To give them encouragement and hope. It is payback for all the help I received and I enjoy doing it. Sometimes I would like to do more.
What are some things you do? I am trying to come up with ideas other than the apparent ones like deliever meals, write a card etc. I have offered to sit with them durring their first chemo but I have never had someone take me up on it. Maybe that is too intrusive.
The New Year has me thinking about how I can be better. I am interested in your thoughts. Maybe someone did something for you that really helped.
Thanks, Tonya
