Morsels of Might: How One Meal Took a Huge Burden Off This Cancer-Fighting Mom
Meet Jamie. She’s a busy mom who’s had to navigate multiple recurrences of cervical cancer, and now, on top of that, is facing a new breast cancer diagnosis.
It’s incredibly defeating.
Jamie’s treatment days are long and exhausting, often lasting 10 hours or more, filled with endless side effects and uncertainty. She has to lug cooling packs for her hands and feet back and forth from the hospital, all while navigating a new treatment regimen. Can you imagine having to pack and carry food that will stay fresh on top of all that?
“Sometimes, as a busy mom, I’m so focused on getting my child off to family and making it to treatment on time that I don’t even have time to pack food for myself."
It’s a lot to handle, especially when you’re going through cancer treatment. Between managing her health, taking care of her family, and dealing with everything else, it’s more than most of us could bear.
But then, something special happened.
Through Culinary Care, Jamie started receiving meals during her treatments. And those meals became a real lifeline. They weren’t just about food—they took a huge weight off her shoulders.
“Treatment days are always long and busy. It’s very expensive to eat at the hospital, so without these meals and help, I might not eat at all. It’s a huge blessing.”
Jamie hasn’t been in this fight alone. Cancer affects the whole family. Whether it’s the loved one driving her to treatment or the friend sitting by her side, they’re right there with her. And so is the Culinary Care community.
Thanks to the generosity of donors like you, we provide free meals for both Jamie and her loved ones during treatment.
It’s one less thing for her to worry about, giving her some much-needed peace of mind. In the middle of everything she’s facing, these meals offer Jamie more than just food—they offer hope, relief, and more moments with her loved ones. They remind her that she’s not alone, that people out there care and want to help her through this tough time.
“These meals brighten my treatment days and make it so much easier for my family and me to get through. Your support is truly a lifeline and lifts a huge burden!”
Jamie’s story is a powerful reminder of how much support and community matter on this journey.
Thanks to your generosity, she doesn’t have to stress about how she’ll feed herself or her family during treatment on top of everything else. Your kindness goes beyond providing meals. You’ve made sure that both Jamie and her family feel cared for and supported.
Thank you. Jamie and her family will always remember your kindness!
