<< stacy, I wouldn't risk it, personally.  my latex  allergy has worsened

least, can she
 wear protective inner gloves, like liners, until you  find a better,
latex-free solution? >>
As per latex: Cyclists and other outdoor athletes often wear thin polypro
liners under their other gloves. If it's contact and not inhalation-related,
maybe this would work?
