Hi Susie and welcome. I don't know anything about the spray gel,but
there are a lot of ppl on here that can give you advice in that
department. I am so sorry you are having such a hard time right now. I
know what it is like to be a caregiver to an ill parent,I have been in
that position myself,and it is hard enough when you are feeling
well,much less feeling as poorly as you are right now. Is there anyone
that can help you right now,like a brother or sister? It sound's like
you need some help. My thought's and prayer's are with you,hang in
there. Laura.
