My mom went to see her Oncologist today. She is now going to be taking ORAL chemotherapy!! This means she wont have to go to a hospital for her treatments! She also can now go up to Ft McMurray Canada to take care of her mothers estate and other things. At least now she has a bit more freedom. :clap;

Glad to hear it.
I was on oral chemotherapy called cytoxin for 6 mths. This method is easier for the body to tolerate than the drip chemo.
I wish her well.
