Please note that the chemotherapy is NOT the primary treatment - it is the surgery & radiotherapy.
The chemo in Jen's case is used in low doses which amplifies the effect of the radiotherapy treatment, as well as get rid of any cancerous cells that may have escaped the lymph nodes to other parts of the body.
Hope that helps Jay
