Hello, my mother has been diagnosed with gallbladder cancer, stage 34. i'd like to know how can we help her in this stage, should she change her diet?

Low fat diet: Low fat diet may help if she is jaundiced. But otherwise, ERCP or ptc drain if there is biliary blockage may be an option. Oncology opinion. Explore clinical trials.
