Help for Cancer Patients

Well, after Adele Dubois' post yesterday about her hunky housekeeping hero, I thought I should share this. It comes from Diane Stacy, the VP of Direct Sales at Dorchester. (If you call to order a book or sign up for their Book Club, you just might get to talk to this lovely, vivacious person!) It's about a service for women who are going through chemotherapy. Here's the message Diane sent the Dorchester loop:

This is a great service that isn't well publicized.


Any woman with cancer receiving Chemo treatments can get her house cleaned monthly for 4 months while she is in treatment. If you know any woman currently undergoing Chemo for ANY type of cancer, please pass the word to her that there is a cleaning service that provides FREE Housecleaning - 1 time per month for 4 months while she is in treatment.

All she has to do is sign up and have her doctor fax a note confirming the treatment. Cleaning for a Reason will have a participating maid service in her zip code area arrange for the service. This organization serves the entire USA and currently has 547 partners to help these women. Let's pass the word and let them know that there are people out there who care.

Thanks for sharing this with me, Diane! I'd be willing to bet everyone who reads this knows someone who is or has or will be going through treatment for cancer. Hope this helps somebody.
