Cleaning service offers comfort to cancer patients in Missouri PDF Print E-mail
Monday, February 08 2010 13:18

Aleta Coxen spends much of her time at home, often relegated to the couch. The treatment for her advanced ovarian cancer leaves her tired, nauseated and full of aches and pains. She's taunted by the dirt on the floor, fingerprints on the fridge and cobwebs in the corners.

When a team from Marvelous Maids came to Coxen's home in St. Peters last month and cleaned it for free, she was overwhelmed. The company is one of three local cleaning services partnering with the Cleaning For a Reason Foundation, which recruits and supports maid services to provide four free house cleanings to women undergoing treatment for cancer.
