My Mom died 16 years after her breast cancer from the drug therapy to keep the cancer from coming back. Well it worked. Too bad it also gave her 2 strokes and post stroke dementia that she eventually passed from. Was finally given the choice of stopping the drug and risk cancer coming back, or continue and keep having strokes. We stopped it, but by then the stroke damage was already done and she was left to slowly fall victim to post stroke dementia like Alzheimer's. Think we would have been much happier if we would have been given the alternatives BEFORE they started the drug therapy and had the strokes. Mom would have much rather had the cancer come back than go thru the strokes and dementia.
