I also wanted to mention,that right throughout chemo,we put hand sanitiser at our front door,and ANYONE that came to the house,had to sanitise their hands before they came in.We had 5 foster children at the beginning,so if anyone needed to blow their nose,they had to go to the bathroom.We were really big on cleanliness.I had my own cup plate and eating utensils.I know others who have done this too.It doesn't hurt to be careful.During week 2, I used throw away plastic gloves in the kitchen.Anything to lessen the chance of infection.Two of our boys, and our daughter,both got sick during my chemo,but I was fine!
