I second the recommendation for Biofine. At my rads center, they gave it to the bc patients for free. I made sure to apply it immediately after tx, when I was getting dressed, and then again before bedtime. The key is to start using it right away, BEFORE you start to burn. I had no burning other than a mild "sunburn" that went away about a week after tx.

Best of luck to you and your sister,
