Hi, I appreciate you seeking help for your uncle. As I understand, the oral cancer continues to spread despite the initial surgery. Did you discuss the chemotherapy treatment goals with his doctor? Apparently, chemotherapy, as advised by his doc, can help slow down the disease progression. Simultaneously, an integrative treatment with alternative medicines suitably, can also help improve clinical outcomes as would be contextually possible. Sincerely
