Why it is written in Google that treatment for limited early stage small cell carcinoma treatment is cure which is achieved in 20 to 25 percent of people? Can some people be cured of this if treatment starts in limited stage? Will it reoccur in 100 out of 100 cases?

Dear doctors I'm begging you for a reply.. My mother has limited stage small cell lung carcinoma and I thought it was curable but I consulted 2 doctors and they are saying no cure even in limited stage just survival max 2 yrs that too with treatment.. Is it true? I'm so worried? Can't it be cured in some people? Does it always come back? Always? My mother is 67 and wants to live.. Please reply 🙏

Is Chemo dangerous? People are saying it can kill a person.. My mother is 67 and needs to have chemotherapy for small cell carcinoma lungs.. Can she take it and be cured? Do old people tolerate chemotherapy well?

Do cancer skips generation ? Although i feel healthy

Hemoglobin drops suddenly.  Then the doctor asks to report. It is better if you tell the problem. Report says that it is Leukopenia. It's very dangerous or not. What is the best way to recover from it.
