Yes...There are many stories with happy ending. Chemo is not the end of your life. Every day is a gift... that's what chemo reminds you.

The recommendation is inexact. It is known that a percentage will benefit, it is just not known which individuals in the population of those who get chemotherapy will be the ones who will benefit from it.
