It is daunting when facing Chemotherapy ,you don’t know how your body will respond to the treatment or side effects,  but if it will increase your chances for survival then it needs consideration,I have seen some suffer with side effects,and yet seen others go through Chemo with not many side effects,our bodies all react differently best wishes
