"Peppermint & Ginger Comfort Kits are FREE kits created to help provide comfort and help alleviate some of the more common side effects caused by chemotherapy. An “Adult Kit” contains peppermint and ginger teas (which can help ease nausea), a soft bristle toothbrush, alcohol free mouth wash and toothpaste and lip balm (to help ease oral side effects experienced as a result of treatment), warm socks and a relaxation CD. When possible, P&G adds in other goodies as well. Their “Pediatric Kit” contains hot chocolate instead of teas and it’s contents will vary depending on the age of the patient.

If you know of a cancer patient receiving chemotherapy or if you yourself are a patient and would like one of these comforting kits, please go to: http://www.pandgcomfortkits.org/inde...rm=Request_Kit to request one."
