While different cancers call for different treatments, all cancers and all illnesses can be helped by kindness. Shayna and Nancy hope you will join our Healing with Kindness project and share how you are showing kindness to someone who has cancer or someone who is helping someone with cancer. Please send photos of your acts of kindness to nancychurnin.com and, with permission, we will share on our Healing with Kindness page and social media.
Here are some examples of ways to heal with kindness; we look forward to learning from and celebrating your ideas, too:
Purchase, print, or create your own card to send to someone in your life that has cancer.
Find your local cancer center and drop off: purchased or homemade cards to the patients purchased or homemade cards to the amazing oncology nurses packaged snacks, new warm fuzzy socks, or new beanies/hats to the patients
Make a Mad Lib/fill-in-the-blank page that you can print, fill out, and give to a loved one with cancer and to an oncology nurse that treats your loved one. Some examples: I love you like an (animal) loves (the animal's favorite food). Which is A LOT! You're special because when I'm with you, I'm so (how he/she makes you feel)
