Small acts of kindness!

I had lots of lovely help and support throughout my treatment - often from people who I knew only casually including: the school community having a cook up and bringing over meals, hampers for Christmas, the local church taking my 8yr son to go to a magic show in Sydney for the day, one of the teachers would often walk my son home after school when I wasn't feeling up to it and lifts to and from after school activities. Being taken out for coffee and regular texts and calls from friends were all terrific ways to feel supported but one of the loveliest gestures was my brother's fiancee making a beautiful quilt to go over my knees while I was having chemo, and it was always a great talking point in the ward.
