Lotions and Potions

It's true, you can find many items to buy when you search on hydrating lotions during radiation, or radiation burns...  I've been using the Eucerin Plus and vitamin E.  Today I'm going to get some calendula lotion and some 100% aloe.  The Eucerin has been good so far very thick, but as this progresses I don't want to have to do the deeper rub to get the lotion into the skin if it's irritated.  The vitamin E is good but very runny and doesn't absorb as quickly.  Fine on a day you are hanging out and don't care about the goop on any of the cancer clothes, but need something that is healing and absorbing for the days I can go to work.  Since calendula comes from marigolds I'm all set as soon as black fly season starts around Mother's Day.  Everybody knows how well marigolds work as a repellant!
