Re: Anxious...

Tom,

If you all are dressing up for Halloween I think Ben should be a superhero, SUPER CHEMO MAN or something like that. And you can be SIDEKICK OF SUPER CHEMO MAN. Dress up and show chemo who is the boss of chemo! And maybe when he goes for his treatments you can wear your capes! Should make the other patients laugh and laughter is the best medicine.
