In the last report we shared something with you about Rose. Rose was diagnosed with lymphoma in July 2020. She had a lot of support from the Kanjerketting (Chain of Courage), because it made it so clear to her what was happening. She get a bead for every (medical) treatment. For example, when you get your chemo, you receive the pink, white and green bead. It makes a sort of diary and it helps remembering the treatments you had.
Rose's hair also fell out during her treatment. Even twice! She had the bead for hair falling out twice.
When Rose's hair started falling out for the second time, Rose had a conversation with her brother. Together they came up with the question of why there isn't a bead for when your hair grows back. It is so important to think about the positive things as well!
With this beautiful thought, Rose started an action. An action to collect money for a new bead for the Kanjerketting, namely a bead for when your hair grows back.
This Sunday we will see in the Dutch TV-series 'Hallo, ik heb kanker' if she reached her goal!
Next to that, we will share the special bead for World Childhood Cancer Day on the 15th of February!
