Delay in giving herceptin

Please help me. I am in deep trouble. My mother had mastectomy done then the oncologist gave 8 cycles of chemo therapy then 15 radio therapy and after that they suggested for herceptin injection. Now I am in India and the indian doctors are suggesting that herceptin should be given with chemo and now your mother has finished chemo and radio. Now it is too late and herceptin would not work. What should I do now? Is it true that herceptin would not work?
