What can i do if my mom has to have chemo and i don't know how to deal with it. please help?

You can help/support: You need to be prepared by finding about what chemo and what side effects to expect or not to expect. Her oncologist and or his oncology nurse will provide you guidance and education so that neither you nor your mother is in the dark. Once you know, then the anxiety lessons. Most people take chemo without any side effects these days as there are many good medicines which prevent all side effects.
