TRIBUTE TUESDAY: CHARITY BEGINS WITH YOU

Tribute Tuesday is to honor charities, charitable groups and those who go above and beyond for their charities.

WINGS OF ANGELS



Wings of Angels provides Breast Cancer Recovery Care Packages and Healing Gift Baskets.

Healing with breast cancer therapy and other recovery treatments can be painful and uncomfortable. That’s why Wings of Angels creates breast cancer care packages and recovery gift baskets filled with items that comfort and soothe the healing patient.

Using her own experience, Linda has personally handpicked items that provide comfort and encouragement when the recovering patient needs them most. She has assembled a variety of gift baskets and care packages. For example, the Recovery Care Package contains helpful items to relieve the discomfort due to breast cancer surgery. Other packages are available to comfort and lift the human spirit.

Linda’s Breast Cancer Recovery…and the Story behind Wings of Angels

When I was forty, I was told that I had breast cancer. That day—that moment—changed my life forever. I had all these thoughts of how long I have, what about this, and what about that. I remember I stayed in those thoughts for a while before I was able to think about something other than cancer.

During that time my path crossed with a beautiful lady named Lisa. This lady gave me the strength I needed to help me put my life back together. I remember one day I asked her if my life will ever get to a point where I can smile again…even laugh. Lisa had already gone through this ordeal herself, and she was happy to tell me that I would get to a time where I would enjoy life and so much more.

I remember how those words sounded and thought, I HOPE she is right. It is my pleasure to share with you that she was right and, dear friends, one day you will experience life past cancer. If you or someone you know has been diagnosed with cancer, it does not mean life is over.

It took me a while to figure that out, but eventually I realized that this was actually a strengthening experience for me.


I remember how Lisa helped give me the support and encouragement when I needed it most. And now I want to help others who face the challenges of breast cancer and other illnesses. That’s why I founded Wings of Angels—to provide support and comfort to individuals dealing with recovery treatments. Each gift basket and care package is filled with items carefully selected by me, knowing what will soothe and comfort the healing patient. I invite you to browse the selection of care packages and breast cancer gift baskets.

Live your life for today. It is your gift. Cherish it.

Warmly,
Linda Fisher
