Lusomé Donna Long Sleeve Button Front Sleep Shirt, Moisture Wicking
Description
A long sleeve button front sleep shirt with real shell buttons, an open notch collar, contrast ivory piping, and slight shaping at the waist. Because it opens fully down the front, it can be put on and taken off without lifting the arms overhead, and it opens at the chest for port access without removing the top.
Made with Xirotex moisture wicking fabric, which draws perspiration away from the skin and speeds evaporation. Tagless throughout. Composition varies by color, ranging from cotton and polyester blends to micromodal blends with spandex. Machine wash cold, tumble dry on low, iron on low. No fabric softener, no bleach, no dry cleaning.
Also available as the Donna Short Sleeve Shirt. Pairs with the Donna Sleep Pant and Donna Sleep Short, all sold separately.
Why It Matters
This is where the fabric earns its keep. Xirotex moves perspiration away from the skin and speeds evaporation, so you are less likely to wake up damp and cold at 3am. Add a tagless finish and a relaxed shape at the waist and it is simply a good pajama top to sleep in.
The buttons are the part that matters more than they look. A shirt that opens fully goes on without lifting your arms overhead, which is the difference between dressing yourself and needing help after chest or breast surgery. It also opens at the chest for port access without taking the top off.
Long sleeves suit cold infusion rooms and skin that has turned sun sensitive. If hot flashes are the bigger problem, the Donna Short Sleeve Shirt is the same shirt with less of it.

Some of the people you expected to show up will not. Others you barely knew will turn out to be extraordinary. Almost nobody warns you that a diagnosis rearranges your relationships, and that the sorting can hurt as much as the treatment.
Caring for Someone With Cancer Without Disappearing Yourself
Every caregiver says a version of the same sentence: I am fine, it is not about me. They mean it. It is also not true, and it is not sustainable. The household is running on you, and that deserves attention too.
