Let's talk about care packages! One of the best things during my time in treatment was the care packages my aunts sent me with each chemo treatment. 

​

• Lemonheads (chemo and IV lines flushed with saline can have a metallic taste, so lemon or mint can help mask that)

• Lindi Skin

• fun or comfy socks (hospitals can be cold!)

• a beanie

• movies or movie giftcards (treatment can take a long time)

• easy books to read (I was a lit major but the last thing I wanted to read was anything super long or heavy)

• milestone celebration gifts (like party hats and party horns for midway through treatment dates)

• flowers or pictures of flowers (bright colors are great, too)
