Some of our friends have been asking how they can help us, so we've handed out a few jobs where we can: gardening, cleaning, sorting kids' clothes and toys, etc., etc. But it's hard to know how to delegate these little details of our life ...
The Canadian Cancer Society publishes some useful booklets for cancer patients and their families and friends. Here's a link to a short brochure about helping cancer patients, but the information could apply to helping anyone in your life in a tough situation: Helping someone with cancer: What you can do.
There's a longer book that is also very good, but which is more about the day-to-day and longer-term challenges of cancer. It's called Living with cancer: A guide for people with cancer and their caregivers.
