Depends on stage: We don't have enough info here. It sounds like she is being recommended for radiation, and that sometimes makes sense depending on the pattern of the disease. Different in many cases. You should call her treating oncologist and ask him to discuss the treatment plan. Usually oncologists are happy to discuss treatment plans with families. Good luck.

Depends: Depends on the stage, where it is located, response to therapy. A lot of factors depend on the use of radiation after chemotherapy. Hope this helps.
