'Circle of Friends' group at Griffin Hospital in Derby learns to create healing boxes

Woodbridge resident Jon Gorham Thursday discusses 'Healing Boxes,' an organization he started with his wife, Mary, a cancer survivor. 
The couple spoke at the monthly meeting of our Circle of Friends support group at Griffin Hospital in Derby. Circle of Friends is made up of breast cancer survivors.

The Gorhams demonstrated how make to the nesting boxes. It was a lot of fun. Art therapy projects bring out the silliness and creativity in some members!

Here's a photo of the three boxes I made:


Everyone made the same ones, but I was proud nonetheless that I was able to follow along.



Stay tuned for more information about Healing Boxes in an upcoming issue of our newsletter.
