About Karen Sharkey

After personally going through the cancer experience twice. Feeling frustrated by the lack of chemical free, safe products available in one location to use during cancer treatment. I created a small business that provides the necessary personal care items in a tote to manage daily symptoms brought on by treatment.My goal is to stream line the process of procuring necessary items (chemical free and safe) to manage daily symptoms that arise as a result of cancer treatment, alleviate stress, and provide comfort for others going through cancer treatment.Specialties: Cancer survivor, Registered Dental Hygienist. I have over 20 year experience in the dental field addressing oral care, xerostomia, and periodontal disease in a gentle, nurturing way. Master Herbalist.
