Nicole’s Cancer Treatment Journey

Midlothian, VA

Story

As Nicole undergoes her breast cancer treatment, the support of her community is more important than ever. The Hansens will need meals, babysitting, and playdates. Their specific needs can be found in the Care Calendar below. Click the "I'll Help" button to volunteer for a specific date! Dinner deliveries for Nicole and Christian will fall on Tuesdays, Thursdays (chemo day), and Fridays around 5:30pm. Providing dinner for the kids is optional since they tend to have their safe foods at home. Dietary restrictions, food preferences, and favorite takeout orders are listed in the Special Notes section below. Please text Christian (804-366-9722) to confirm specifics. The family would love to set up one playdate each weekend, either on Saturday or Sunday. Please leave the other option open if one is reserved. Weekend playdates for Margaret and Norah will fall between 1 and 4pm during Desmond's afternoon nap. Nicole and Christian would love for you to come and visit this summer to spend time with the kids and provide moral support! Be sure to block out the childcare slots on the weekend of your visit to avoid any double-booking. They will not be available for visits over the 4th of July weekend. If you would like to contribute in other ways, please check out the right side of the page for the Amazon wishlist (this will be updated as needs arise), PayPal account and giftcard preferences. Every little bit helps ease the pressure Nicole and Christian are feeling right now.
