I have found that the relationship with the CancerCare team (from surgeon through scheduling clerk) is one that is enhanced with being considerate of each other. I guess that-to me-does include a gift at the holiday season to say Thanks. Maybe if I had to hand over a credit card each time I went to visit I would feel differently. I am curious about how people proceed.
