As Jody said, most of us are here because of side effects, the blessings of surviving cancer, and are looking for answers. I would suggest you direct your sister here to know she is not alone. I'm 20 years out, and I am still dealing with things that I now take for granted. They are inconvenient for sure, but I have learned to live with most of it. A good support network is important as the medical staff can only do so much. Your sister survived a deadly disease, but it is also important to learn how to go on living. That can be a challenge if you're always looking over your shoulder, with constant reminders plaguing you. I hope she gets the help she needs, and thank you for being so supportive.
