Hope, Peace, Love and Joy this July

It's Christmas in July!!!  What does that mean to you?  A mid-year sale at your favorite department store?   A chance to snag some deals on Christmas stuff off-season?

At Cancer Patient Services, we see Christmas a little differently in July.  While everyone is busy with Independence Day celebrations and vacation plans, we continue to serve and support newly diagnosed cancer patients and their families.  Unfortunately, cancer doesn’t take a break because it is time for the annual family vacation to the beach...  Our friends, neighbors, co-workers and family members are continuing to hear the terrible news…You have cancer.

So, it is especially this time of year that we like to remember the true meaning of Christmas: feelings of Hope, Peace, Love and Joy.  Positive feelings that make life worth living!  Here at CPS, we want to help our friends who have received a cancer diagnosis even during this sunny warm July.  We want local cancer patients to believe they can find joy, again.

So, we've collaborated locally with downtown Findlay, Ohio businesses who believe in us and our mission to serve local cancer patients. Many businesses along or off of our Main Street are offering a proceed back to Cancer Patient Services via item sales July 1 - 25. In addition, we've partnered with the Findlay-Hancock County Alliance in offering a Holiday Gift Scavenger Hunt through businesses who had signed up to offer Third Thursday specials. These are just two ways local community members can support their friends, family members, neighbors, and coworkers battling a cancer diagnosis and who are our clients.

I believe in supporting local. I believe in “giving gladly” this time of year and perhaps all year round…will you join me?

But, in working with CPS clients over the past five years, she also has seen happiness and friendship evolve out of the support and love we extend one another. This blog is a lot of Carol’s first and second hand experiences with people going through cancer, and she welcomes comments and feedback from you.
