@cute31892015 The doctors like to win these battles with cancer too so they want to make good choices. It is very common now to have chemo before surgery.
If your sister is really confused about why this is being recommended she should ask the doctors to explain again. I gather that English may be your second language (I hope I don't offend you by guessing that) If you think it may help your sister, ask if you can have an interpreter who understands some of the terminology the doctors are using. Most big hospitals will be able to help you with that and it may make her, and you, a bit more comfortable. Marg
