The cancer is gone and the tumour is shrinking
6 Answers
Does anyone know what the above statement means??
We have a young relative who has undergone chemo but then needed a course of radiation.
The above statement is what his doctors have said since the radiation treatment finished but to me it seems a contradiction. If its gone how come the tumour is still shrinking?Surely if its gone its gone...or if the tumour is still shrinking the cancer is still there??
