I give you credit for researching and trying to help your sister, but this is her fight and she needs to do it her way.
honestly,I would resent my sister always telling me about this cure or that, or don't eat this or that.
While it is good for everyone to eat healthy and exercise, there is no definitive proof that turmeric or apricot seeds or Budwig will keep her cancer from returning.

I would support her, help her with her kids, let her discuss her fears without dismissing them .
