  • Hi Stage,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm very sorry to read about what your grandma and all of you are going through at the moment - this sounds incredibly difficult.

    Really it is best to speak to your grandma's doctor about this, as they are best placed to advise specifically to her - any other advice you may get would be too general and not necessarily relevant.

    So do try to ask them any questions you have when you can, so you have as much information as possible.

    Wishing you all the best,

    Ben
