My 78 year old mother three weeks ago had a tumer removed from her pancrius. Everything went well, the tumer was localized,and the surgon was confident all the cancer was removed. She is heeling quickly and even left the hospital a week early. This week the tests on her lymp nodes came back with out of the 16 removed 15 were clean however 1 had 1 canser cell in it. The doctors are now recommending cemo therapy. My mother is a relativly healthy women for her age (except for this), is this therapy to much for a person of her age.
