Q. A tumor was discovered in my kidney how should I prepare myself to the future events?

A. sorry to hear...there are all sorts of tumors in kidneys but generally i recommend first of all talking to your family and explain the situation. but only after you understand what it is and what that means. you will need a lot of support and you don't want to leave your loved ones in the darkness about it. believe me that is the basic in preparing yourself to any tumor therapy.
good luck!!
you'll be fine i'm sure!!

A. i'm sorry to hear about your sister...but just for you to know that breast cancer is considered an easy-to-treat disease that has a good prognosis. that is because it's usually spotted in an early stage.
i think like any great illness, the important part is helping her in those little things that she faces. going with her to treatments, helping her take care of her children, cleaning the house and even taking her to see a movie!
