Services

Well this morning is my 3rd treatment and as I'm getting ready for it I was reflecting on how awesome some of the services are that have become available to me. I have two appointments for next week, one is with the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the program is called "Look Good...Feel Better". I'll be going to a class to show me how to apply makeup when I've lost my hair. Just think about your face without eyebrows or eyelashes, big difference. So for a woman, the makeup process is completely different. They'll go over everything from blending the foundation, to brushing on eyebrows, etc. I'm looking forward to it. Then, on Friday, I have a housecleaning service coming out to clean my house for FREE!! This program is for people going through Chemotherapy and it's called "Cleaning For a Reason". They put you on a waiting list and then contact a housecleaning company within your county that is contracted through them, and they come out once a month for four months to clean your house!! What a wonderful service. In speaking with the local contractor last night to set up the appointment, he asked (because he was curious) about how long the turn-around time was for the entire process. I told him that I had inquired about the service approximately 10 days prior, and he was amazed!! He said, "I don't know what kind of strings you pulled, or how it worked out for you, but right now the company has been inundated with phone calls, so much so that they had to turn off their phones! They actually have been receiving about 300 requests a day!" I couldn't help but laugh at what he told me and said, "you know, things have just been working in my favor! I'm truly blessed these days."

I mention this because if there's ever a time of wanting to give back or pay it forward, it would be now. I cannot wait to help out this company when I'm doing better, because they could truly use it. If you happen to know of anyone who would like to donate, or if you're able to do so yourself, or if you simply want to check it out, the website is called:

Well, my hair is going to dry all funky if I don't get in and finish blow drying it. As long as I still have hair, I want it to look good!!

Have a happy day!! I know that I'm going to :) Love to you all, Genie ♥
