I can tell you from experience that chemo treatment rooms are FREEZING. There are sometimes a dozen patients in one room, and many will have no immune systems left. The cold helps keep viruses from spreading.

Not only that, a bright quilt made by a perfect stranger says "someone cares" in a really tangible way. I would have loved to have had one.
