So, MIL had a lump removed after it was found at a routine mammogram.
According to her it was tiny; it was removed along with biopsy (I think?) of lymph nodes and she is completely clear.
She is having 20 sessions of radiotherapy over 4 weeks to catch any remaining cells that might be left.
Does that sound right? She is very very private and doesn't want to talk about anything, let alone this, and I have a sneaking suspicion there is more going on than she is saying. Although obviously I haven't said as much to DH.
So does that sound about right - 20 sessions of radiotherapy just as a safety net?
Thanks.
