the unscented stuff is good. i had forgotten that.... they told me to wash gently [the radiated places] with a non perfumed, gentle soap. again, i don't know how her chemo is going to work but it's worth having the info and conversation with the dr.s. ask ask ask

having the sanitizers everywhere is something! here, it is of course in alot of physicians bathrooms and most dr.s have a bottle of sanitzer in the exam rooms, etc. but not down the hallways like you have.

tell her not to suffer! there are so many drugs that can help with all the problems and side effects.

there are beverages here in the states that are suppose to help with strength and to keep you from losing weight. during my radiation, the doctors were very specific at not wanting me to lose weight. one of the new products i was given is called Juven. the label touts "Targeted Nutritional Therapy Helps Build and Maintain Lean Body Mass". now, i wasn't losing weight so i didn't have to use any of these products but your sil might. this would be another thing to consider when purchasing things to drink.

oh, something else you might consider is small light wieghts or squeeze balls. just something to help move the arm muscles ever so slightly.
