Preparing for your first chemotherapy infusion can be overwhelming. I didn't know what to bring or where to start. There were of course the necessary items as directed by the doctor. I soon realized comfort items would be essential and getting though the difficult treatments. We have put together a list of common items to consider.

I didn’t want pity or to deal with others emotions and I certainly didn’t want to tell my horrific story over and over again.
