Chemo Angel

Well... I think for "now" that I am over the Step-mom thing... lol

So, I will start with something that I chose to do that has made me feel really good... that actually Is meant to make someone else feel good. A few weeks ago I signed up to become a Chemo Angel... The way this works is... you are given a patient that is currently going thru Chemo... and your job is to send them little notes or maybe a little pick-me-up-gift.. At least something on a weekly basis.. Chemo Angel's are told NOT to expect a reply from your Chemo patient... They may be too busy and to sick to be expected to answer you.. So I sent off my first letter to my Chemo Patient not expecting an answer, but a little place inside of me was sooo hoping that i would get a reply, at least a short one. In my letter I included my email address, and low and behold I heard from her today.. and she even sent me some pictures of her two beautiful babies.. 3 yrs & 9 mos old... They are precious. And mom is close to my heart.. she is a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother and now a Chemo patient and she is only in her late 20's. I myself was a Chemo patient at the age of 30, I was a single mom with two small children, so I totally understand everything that she is going thru...

I bought some great hand & body lotion and some matching shower gel that I am going to drop in the mail to her tomorrow... So if there is anyone out there at all that will read my blog and you have any good idea's for some little pick-me-up-gifts for her... leave me a comment and let me know. Any ideas will help.

And if anyone else is interested in becoming a Chemo angel to someone in need.. please go to http://www.chemoangels.net/ . I'm sure there is someone out there that could use a pick-me-up from you.... ^j^
