"Wow!!! Thank you so much for the generous donation of so many self-care bags to give to our cancer patients. They are beautiful and thoughtful. I was able to give one to a patient today who just recently started a new treatment regimen and it really made her day. So many times it's the small acts of kindness like this that make such a huge difference in our patients' lives."
