Helping Karen Sweeney Heal

Cambridge, MA

Story

Hi everyone — Karen is officially home recovering and, in her words, “feeling a little better each day.” Which is excellent news, because she has already beaten cancer and would now probably like to move on to less ambitious hobbies. After major surgery, Karen will be mostly homebound for the next couple of months while she heals. Her sister is there until Friday (May 29th), and now it’s our turn to help carry the load a bit. As many of you know, Karen somehow manages to be: - a doctor who takes care of everyone else, a RUEDA dancer with more stamina than people half her age, a world traveler, a devoted mother, and a great lover of life, people, animals, food, and adventure. At the moment, however, her primary job is: sitting still and letting other people help her. Frankly, this may be her greatest challenge yet! So we’re organizing meals, treats, and small acts of kindness to help make recovery easier (and hopefully less boring). Karen is at: 45 Grozier Road Cambridge, MA If you’d like to participate, please sign up for a meal, send a gift card, drop off soup, flowers, pastries, books, puzzles, gossip, or anything that says: “We love you and we’re here.” Most importantly: Karen is cancer free. And that deserves all the love, carbs, and celebration we can send her way. ❤️


Special Notes

They have a cooler that they will put out-front for food items: Please drop-off the food anytime, although 5:30 -6:30 is ideal! Karen doesn't have any allergies, although Charlie is allergic to Mollusks. They eat everything, although they are trying to be plant based.
