I can't work..and I hate it..I've always wanted to work with children..disabled children like myself..I think that's where most people go wrong when looking for work..most just work because they have to in order to live..but it should be about doing something you love as well. Could you be a mentor for a disabled child? Kind of like a big sister type deal? I think there would be many whom you would inspire.

I'm in mining and explorations....I get to spend weeks at a time out in the forest stomping around and the only traffic that I fight is the Loons on the lakes... I absolutly love my job....

I am a RN, giving chemo to cancer patients and love it. Very rewarding profession, not highly paid but rewarding. Im a massage therapist & i love it. As soon as there are CEU classes for cancer massage im in it. Been waiting 4yrs but hopefully it will happen soon. What you do is very cool & i bet your one of the rare ones that truly care& rock at your job. :) I haven't heard of any of yet but i think it would be awesome for the patients. It would have to be more of a gentle massage for those that have bone mets but it would be possible. I do love my job and patients, and they know it. I wish i was a writer just to be able to share some of my wonderful, humerous experiences. Good luck in your massage. Oh yes comfort touch massage is very very light & loving. If i were giving a massage to someone getting chemo it would be with them clothed & more about laying on hands than rubbing if that makes sense? It would help sooo many people. :)
