These are the comfort items that actually help you get through long treatment days — the things I used, and the things I watched bring real comfort to the people in the chairs around me.

Here are some things you can add into your home/routine:
I put together this list of recommendations, and then I got sick—oh, the irony! 😅 The best way I’ve found to avoid getting sick is to stay ahead of it: wash your hands regularly, use hand sanitizer, take your vitamins, and eat healthy meals.
