Hello everyone,

I am Vital

My sister in-law was diagnosed with Breast cancer. She lives in Cameroon in Africa. What Can I do to help her? What can you please tell to do to help my sister in-law? She is in deep pain and crying for help. I don't just know what to do to help her. Can you please give some advices? The most scaring part of all this is that the doctor is being given her some medicine and nothing else. Some saw some stitches couple weeks ago on her breast and it make it even more scaring to me.

    You are a good sister, Vital.  Can you find a good breast cancer center near where she lives.  Educate yourself about the types of bc and get an appt with the doc and find out what is going on.  It is so hard, I know, but make sure to get answers about treatment options and diagnoses.  Good luck! xo

    Vital...I was thinking maybe your SIL had a lumpectomy since someone saw a scar.

    Maybe she is in pain because they didn't give her enough medicine.

    I had a lumpectomy and it wasn't painful but everybody is different.

    You have to find out if she is crying from pain or she is very upset.

    find out what type of BC she has first.

    Its difficult when our loved ones are far away.

    Hugs to you.

    Sheila
