my sister has just finished radiotheraphy for throat cancer 3 weeks ago,she had six weeks treatment,shes always been a smoker and drinker,shes still drinking and smoking plus taking medication for the pain,shes lost loads of weight,but she wont listen to me or anyone when i try to talk about the smoking,my brother died of throat cancer 2 years ago (non smoker or drinker)he was only 34,my dad died of throat cancer he was HEAVY DRINKER/SMOKER shes now waiting for results to see if the treatment have worked,but she wont give up the booze/fags(but shes cut down ?any good advise please
ps.her consultant told her today that if this cancer clears up,she got a good chance,but if she carrys on smoking it could go to other mouth cancers,but she dont take any notice
