The sewing and cooking camp at St. Joseph’s Academy fulfilled a little known need of clients at Cancer Services by sewing and donating over 30 “port pillows” for the agency to distribute. Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy can choose to have a port inserted into their chest to make receiving treatments easier. Though ports streamline their hospital visits they can become bothersome, especially while driving when a seatbelt aggravates it. These pretty little pillows the girls sewed from scraps can be worn under the seatbelt, hopefully making a life with cancer a bit more comfortable. THANKS GIRLS!
