Oncology Doc Report

The following information I got through my Mom, I will try to explain as accurately as I can the next few steps in Mana's breast cancer fight.

Mana will begin chemotherapy (IV drugs to kill cancer cells) on September 10th. She will have a total of 6 treatments 3weeks apart totaling 18weeks of chemotherapy. The doctor said she would feel pretty sick the 3 days following each treatment, but would have 2 and 1/2 weeks without feeling sick between treatments. Radiation treatment will begin after the completion of chemotherapy. I am unsure of how long radiation will take at this time.

Hope this answers any questions, and hopefully this can give you specifics to pray for. Thanks for your commitment to Mana!
