Today must be the day for writing about kindness, Lauren.
Such good news that you got lots of help from the community far and wide.
I remember when a colleague was diagnosed with cancer. Her sister called many of us and asked if we would be prepared to be on a roster to cook for the family. It worked really well, and she didn't ever have to think of cooking for many months.
I'm not great at soliciting help, but I've never been in a dire situation such as yours. I think you deserve a lot of pampering, Lauren. 💜
