Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

It is important to know the type and stage of cancer that she is having. If she is 16 years old and the cancer is in early stage then survival chances are high. Please consult her doctor and she should get treated in a cancer hospital. Many cancer patients of her age respond well to treatment and will make complete recovery.

Please follow up with her doctor regularly and treatment should be taken completely without missing any session. She has to be mentally strong and overcome the battle with cancer. During her recovery make her eat healthy food and see that she maintains a good health and have faith in God. Please do not worry.
