OH MY GOSH - THE PILLOWS

Regular price
$89.99 USD
My friend got her box today and loves it! She said the nurses at her radiation treatment had just recommended the calendula lotion to keep her breast moisturized and she has been using lip balm. She mentioned the deodorant and seat belt pillow as well... So two thumbs up! Very thoughtful products that reflect lots of thought!

As a result, they spend time agonizing about how much time they are spending addressing their cancer(s).
In Defense of The Cancer Card
Lately, we’ve had a few requests to remove the “Cancer Card” from gift boxes – and I’m not entirely sure why. My sense is that the irreverent tone implied by a physical “Cancer Card” does not align with the intended recipient’s sense of humor. Given that our boxes are focused on providing functional, useful items, I can see how this seemingly silly, irreverent item may seem out of place among lip balms, lotions, and blankets.
