A lot of people think it's weird that I love to work with kids who have cancer, and there are days I think I'm crazy too...trust me it's never fun to see how toxic chemo takes a toll on the body in such a short amount of time. And then there's days like I had today, where you get to tell a 6 year old "No Mo Chemo" the look on their face makes everything worth it. Days get even better when patients come back just to say hello, and they are successfully in remission you realize that it's not all sad and gloomy.
There are several things you can do to help support kids with chronic illnesses and one is non profit and takes just some time volunteering to help make blankets (Kylee they would love you if you sewed a blanket or two). The blankets are a part of Project Linus and there are chapters all over the nation. I've been thinking for my birthday this year that instead of presents I'd love for people to donate money or time to Project Linus, make a wish, or the National Children's Cancer society because they need all the volunteers, prayers, and donations they can get. Here is the link to project linus, please take some time to read about it and if you can, get involved!
