Hi I am Dr Mittal. I have read your query I understand your anxiety. First, I will answer the second question. There is no way one can find out the hospital where she is registered. There are ample hospitals in Pune that are dealing with cancer. So it could be anyone of the vast number of hospitals. I think it would be best to sit with her and make her realize that if this is malignancy, she would be better off with at least the psychological support of the family. However one has to be very careful. The patients of cancer are usually very sensitive to the subject, and often depressed because they feel their body has decieved them. As for cure, a complete cure is usually not possible, but good palliative care is available in most centres. Besides, we need to know the stage of the disease before exact therapy can be suggested. Please try to be gentle with her, she will need the support, but as I said, will be hesitant in accepting the support. Please feel free to contact me for any further details. Dr Mittal
