September-November every year marks a time to call awareness to some of the most prolific cancers: September is Ovarian, Leukemia, and Lymphoma Cancer Awareness Month. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month is in November. It's a great time for us to brush up on awareness and being both informed and supportive. Because the fact is, most of us have known someone effected by cancer in some way in the course of our lives, if not us alone. As a cancer survivor myself, I find that the best tools to help someone can ease their comfort can sometimes be overlooked.

Supporting Someone with a Cancer Comfort Gift

A cancer diagnosis can drastically alter someone's life, affecting not just the individual but their entire support network. If you're looking to offer practical and helpful gifts for cancer patients, here are some ideas:

1. Cancer Comfort Gift Box: One of the best wellness gifts you can provide is a cancer comfort gift box. These thoughtful packages can provide much-needed comfort and support during a challenging time. Consider gifting a box like ours with items like:

   • A cozy bamboo beanie for warmth and comfort.
   • Healing tea blends to promote relaxation and well-being.
   • Ginger chews to ease nausea, a common side effect of treatment.
   • Luxurious body cream with essential oils for relaxation and pampering.

   These boxes are designed to bring a little extra comfort and care to your loved one's life.

2. Lend a Hand: Alongside a cancer comfort gift box, offering practical assistance can be invaluable. You can:

   • Accompany them to important medical appointments.
   • Help with everyday errands or tasks, easing their daily burdens.
   • Provide emotional support, offering a listening ear when they need to talk.
   • Assist with household chores, taking some of the stress off their shoulders.

   Your willingness to help can make a significant difference.

3. Honest and Open Communication: When discussing their cancer diagnosis, emphasize the importance of honest and open communication. Create a safe space for them to express their feelings, both positive and negative. Let them know that you're there for them, no matter the topic. Be supportive during difficult discussions, such as future planning, while maintaining a positive outlook toward their recovery.

4. Supporting Cancer Awareness:

   • Ovarian Cancer: In 2023, the fight against ovarian cancer continues, with 1 in 78 women estimated to face this diagnosis. Early detection remains critical, with a 93% five-year survival rate when treated in its earliest stages. Consider learning more about ovarian cancer awareness initiatives.

   • Leukemia: Leukemia remains the most common childhood cancer, with approximately 60,000 new cases projected in the United States each year. This disease affects blood and bone marrow, making it a challenging battle for patients. Explore ways to support leukemia awareness.

   • Lymphoma: Lymphoma impacts the body's lymph tissue and is expected to affect over 80,000 children and adults in the United States this year. Your support can be a source of strength for patients and their families. Discover how you can contribute to lymphoma awareness efforts.
