My boss was diagnosed with cancer earlier this summer. I've been trying very hard to work extra to make things easier for her.
That is really kind of you, many people would not bother. I hope that she wins her battle.
We are very confident she will! Thankfully they caught it early, but the treatment is just really difficult.
Chemotherapy and radiation can really take their toll. There is a program through the cancer society that does a day of beauty with cancer patients. They give them a makeover, giftbags, wigs if needed.
That is wonderful! Luckily for her, because of her chemo site she won't loose her hair. 
That is excellent, and you are a truly giving person. I wish her the best.
Thank you!
