Microscopic cells that technology could not "see" three years ago were found in 3 out of 34 lymph nodes after surgery removed the entire stage 1 tumor…I know it is directed by body weight ; but I can find no guidelines…

We have about 7 patients with breast cancer currently, and a 89 year old patient that just passed away. It seems like just yesterday we seen him and his wife walking into the clinic with a cane. They came almost once a week until they moved into a retirement home which my doctor called over there to make sure they were getting their medications. He was so sweet. The patients with breast cancer are so sweet. I feel bad for them. It seems like everybody is getting sick.

How do you deal with patients getting seriously sick?
