Thank you all for your advice. I truly want to support her and her family the best I can from here. I will be going there in the next month. For now I'm sending care packages with comforting things for my sister. I feel like I just need to "do" something. What I'm very concerned about is that she has had a fever from her first chemo treatment. It's been 5 days now and she's still in the hospital. They think it's an infection but they can't pinpoint it. This worries me but I've also been told that having a fever can be pretty normal for chemo treatments. Can anyone shed any light on this for me? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi- My 48 year old sister who lives France was diagnosed with Squamous cell carcinoma. Stage 4 because it has spread to her GI lymph nodes. The distance and translation of medical terms has been so difficult. We are all in shock because this has come out of nowhere. Healthy lifestyle and she's so young. I know cancer can hit anyone but I need an outlet so that's why I'm here. Trying to figure out when I need to go there. She started chemo this week and has had a high fever. Her husband said he wants me to come for her second round of chemo. Thanks for listening! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
