Thank you Rebecca, I really appreciate you taking the time to write this response and all the advice. Yes she’s had to isolate for the past 6 months, which has been hard but as you say hopefully not as much of a shock going into isolation as it must’ve been for you. I hope you’re doing ok and again, thank you xx

Hi Marty, thank you so much for this, it is really helpful and I’ve added in your suggestions to my shopping list. I hadn’t thought much about the mouth care and really appreciate your tips on this. I ordered some of those mouth sponges for her. Can you use normal toothpaste? What mouthwash would you recommend? Anything else you or anyone else thinks of would be very much appreciated. Thank you!

Hello all, my mum is about to have her SCT in a couple of weeks. I’m putting a care package together for her to take to hospital and wondered what you all found helpful to have with you or any little home comforts that she might appreciate? Thank you, Jess

Hi there, thank you for posting about this. My mum is about to undergo her stem cell transplant in a couple of weeks and very worried for her. It has been really hard not seeing her with lockdown and her being so immunocompromised. I would like to put a care package together for her when she goes into hospital. Rebecca and Nigel could you give me any advice about what she might need? I was thinking magazines, water bottle, lip balm, headscarf, headphones. Are these things useful? Is there anything else you’d recommend? Rebecca did you wear a headscarf and if so do you have one you’d recommend? Thank you 🙂 Jess x
