Hello.That is dipend from the way that doctor have disaide to be the treatment.If your mom have the chemioterapy she may have side effects likeNausea and vomiting,blood disorders. Your bone marrow is the spongy tissue inside your bones. It makes new blood cells. Chemotherapy affects this process, so you might have side effects from having too few blood cells,fatigue,pain,Mouth and throat sores,Hair loss.Nervous system effects etc.But your doctors can curs those side effects.Best wishes
