That was extremely thoughtful of you. Vanicream -- will I disappear if I use it? (Does it have secret powers?)

I asked my allergist for soap recommendations; I use Basis whenever I can find it.

Vanicream sounds great and isn't expensive. I'll look around for it.

Drugstore.com has Basis Soap at a very reasonable price.
I wasted so much time and gas looking for it all over the
DC area. I won't use anything else for the entire family.
