Hello and welcome from me too.  I have never had chemo and realise I cannot start to imagine how difficult it is to function properly in your friend's situation.    I looked on the internet and found there are quite a few websites suggesting activities for home-bound people (I attach a link for one of them to give you the idea but there are loads more.)  Your question about counteracting or finding an alternative for the chemo your friend is getting really needs to be addressed to the doctor who is caring for her as to change any part of her medication needs to be very carefully planned.  I also wondered if your friend could get involved in fund-raising activities for either the hospital under whose care she comes or another charity related to her illness.  I would imagine that at least some of them could suggest things that would be suitable for her current situation.   My best wishes to you and your friend.  Annie
