statistic on chemo....only helps 1/4 of us??

[gqmom]

I recently read a statistic on chemotherapy regarding breast cancer and that it doesn't even help about 3/4 of the women who have it to treat breast cancer. Does anyone have any information on this? Why bother if that's the case?? Basically, the doctor who wrote this said that if the cancer recurs, it would have recurred anyway, and if not, than chemo wouldn't change it either way. Any thoughts???
