A breast cancer support box for patients

“The box provided me so much comfort at the end of a hard day. I knew my team understood what I was going through – things other than the cancer”- Patient UCHealth

The experience was amazing - so many kind doctors but what really stood out was getting such a lovely box as a welcome. It made us all feel so cared for at a difficult time.” - Patient UCHealth

“The boxes have brought so much joy to our patients over the last few months, especially on a day when patients might feel stressed or anxious.” -Nurse Navigator UCHealth

“These wonderful boxes provide each patient with a knowledge of a caring community, a feeling of support beyond their health care team, and a purposeful reminder to care for themselves during this difficult journey...The Stronger than boxes are not just comfort gifts, they are building a community of caring and support for breast cancer patients.” -Nurse Navigator UCHealth

At Stronger than box, we created a specially curated box designed to assist in navigating the challenges that come with treatment while aiming to make the process a bit more manageable. 

Our perfectly curated little box includes products and recommendations that may help ease treatment symptoms for some patients. Included in the box patients will find; full size products, product samples and letters of advice and encouragement to the patient and their caretaker. Simply put, it is everything patients should know and have before they start treatment.

Boxes are currently being distributed at UCHealth Diane O’Connor Thompson Breast Center at Anschutz Medical Campus. Boxes are given to newly diagnosed patients before starting their cancer treatments.
