Omg I hope she gets well soon.

Not that I don't feel bad for your mum or don't believe you, but I'm confused by your post...Cysts aren't tumors/cancer and hardly ever malignant, why would she need chemo to cure cysts? I find this thread very interesting

Never affected me too closely thankfully.

My grandma died of Kidney Cancer, but she lived in Poland so I only saw her a few times. It didn't affect me badly like it did my mom.

I know a bunch of people from school that had one of their parents die from cancer, it's sad

And my best friends' mom found out two years ago that she had breast cancer. She got part of them removed and doesn't have it anymore thankfully.

My grandad died of skin cancer when I was very young, I don't understand what it was then but I remember he had lumps all over his face and was very ill.
