Chemo Care Kit

Anya Hindmarch Hot Pink Vanity Kit
First-time to do chemotherapy? It's best to pack a "chemo care kit" with the following essential items:
- bottle of water or juice
- crackers
- candies
- face mask
- stress ball
- your medicines and prescription
- skincare wipes
- brown paper bag

My mom likes using the free confinement kits that we get from her hospital stay mainly because they're compact, light and transparent.

Chemo sessions take 30 minutes to 4 hours; it really depends on the drugs you're taking. So you may want to also bring a small pillow, an iPod or a good book. Of course, nothing beats bringing a caring companion. :) Cheers to all and be blessed!
