I just can't imagine worrying about the sun right now. I'm looking out at a very gray sky and snow falling, lolol... oh it was minus 2 when I got up this morning, lolol... What medicine are you on? That's what going to make the difference in sun or no sun.

it's actually not for me it's for someone else so I would have to ask that question but apparently her doctor said it would be ok.

Yes if the med she is on doesn't cause sensitivity to the sun she's fine.
