(this was recommended to me) https://www.carecalendar.org I set up a secret group in facebook that lists events and people can post anything they want in it. They have been posting uplifting photos and quotes, etc. And a lot of funny pics! I am able to invite anyone into the secret group and it lists all my upcoming events. This only works when your whole family is on facebook. :) Free scarves for bald heads: www.goodwishesscarves.org Free makeup for cancer patients: www.lookgoodfeelbetter.org Chemotherapy drugs: This is the A of the AC regimen: Adriamycin http://chemocare.com/chemotherapy/drug-info/adriamycin This is the C of the AC regimen: Cyclophosphamide http://chemocare.com/chemotherapy/drug-info/cyclophosphamide Taxol: http://chemocare.com/chemotherapy/drug-info/Taxol This is the shot to boost white blood count that you may receive 24 hours after chemotherapy: Neulasta: http://chemocare.com/chemotherapy/drug-info/Neulasta |
