Hello MJ

Sorry to hear you are in a confusing situation and not clear about your mum's treatment. Have you had contact with her Clinical Nurse Specialist? He or she should be able to explain what is happening with your mum.

Radiotherapy may be given to different areas depending on what is happening with your mum's tumour. More information is available in our booklet Answering your question - which you can see on our website roycastle.org You can have a copy sent to you if you phone our helpline on 0333 323 7200, option 2

best wishes
