Thanks Jeff.

An update -
I just returned from the hospital after an investigation from a specialist. After seeing the reports, he states that the cancer is in the starting stage though there is no indication of TNM specifications written on any document. I discussed it with another physician (not an oncologist) and he asserts that it shall turn out to be T1N0M0 (first stage).

The Radiation Therapy specialist has asked for 6 weeks (5 times a week) = 30 shots of radiation therapy and my mother starts it this Saturday (12th May).

Do you suggest any precautions to be taken before or while she undergoes this treatment?

I really appreciate your response.. Thanks again!

Kind Regards
