One of my dear friends is battling breast cancer right now, and so we at work have been trying to show our support and to cheer her up with her favorite things (which are the color purple and butterflies).
So, first we made her a mobile, where each person who wanted to made a butterfly, and I made the mobile and put everything together.
It was hanging in her cubicle while she went through chemo therapy, and she said it really helped through those nauseous days when she needed a bit more motivation.
Then her dog suddenly developed tumors and died, so we made her a butterfly with her dog's portrait, which went into her cubicle, as well.
Right before Lori's surgery, my supervisor had an idea, which I made into reality ^_^
I made a cocoon, with a butterfly (which my supervisor made) inside. And everyone who wanted to in the department wrote notes for our friend, which I folded and attached to the cocoon. Lori took it home to read the notes, but is not allowed to open the cocoon itself until she comes back (then the butterfly can come out).
This is the shot of everything on Lori's last day before her surgery. As I'm thinking of her, I decided to share this shot, so maybe if there is someone in your life who is going through something hard like this, it can give you an idea on cheering them up through little things like these.
Hundreds of people and vehicles created an hours-long traffic jam on State Street into the Chicago Loop from 26th Street near the South Loop. It was an inspiring event with a diverse group of people including a large showing of Caucasians who peacefully affirmed that black lives matter in a system that disproportionately harms the latter.

Soldiers and Airmen of the Virginia National Guard’s Fort Pickett-based 34th Civil Support Team conduct a joint hazardous material response exercise at James Madison University with JMU Police, Harrisonburg Fire Department and Harrisonburg Rescue Squad May 27, 2015, in Harrisonburg, Va. The mission of the 34th CST is to support first responders in potential biological, chemical, nuclear, radiological and explosive incidents, and the exercise at JMU provided an opportunity for the team to train with area first responders and raise awareness of their capabilities. In the exercise scenario, multiple students and teachers reported signs and symptoms believed to be caused by an unknown hazardous material and the 34th CST was brought in to assist the locality with the incident. Members of the team searched room to room in an empty dormitory for a possible source as well as provided mission command and communications assistance to the incident commander. The 34th CST can identify chemical, biological, and radiological substances, assess current and projected consequences, advise an incident commander on response measures and assist with requests for additional state support. Building a partnership with local emergency response organizations helps the team be able to rapidly respond when needed and effectively function as a member of a joint domestic operations team.
