The lovely and kind Mama Jamz pointed out to me the heartwarming program called Chemo Angels. This organization connects chemo patients with “angels” who send them weekly letters and small gifts in order to support them through the difficult experience of fighting cancer.
One must apply and be approved to be an angel, but what a fabulous program. If you’ve got the time and resources, I’d encourage you to apply. Think of the difference you could make! If you CANNOT join, then go over there and at least read the program and tell ten friends. Or send them a note of encouragement to tell them how awesome they are.
There is also an additional program you can find out about while there — the Senior Angels. This is the same type of program, but you would be writing people in nursing homes or those who are housebound. I wish I had known about this program when my grandmother was in the nursing home!
Mama Jamz, thanks again so much for telling me about this!
