A patient should be informed of both during and after treatment effect of chemotherapy. During the treatment, the patient may experience gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal or constitutional symptoms, they can be referred to as frequent vomiting, loss of appetite and diarrhea. Some patients may also experience fevers and feel tired quickly. One of the most seen side effects of chemotherapy is alopecia, wherein the patient's hair falls out. While after the treatment, the patient may not feel any side effects immediately, but after a few months or years, signs of heart or kidney problems may appear, so as lung tissue damage or nerve damage. Patients who undergo chemotherapy may experience infertility, or the state wherein your ability to conceive a child is gone or low and also Chemotherapy has a risk that the cancer may reemerge after some time after treatment.

How does California's Safely Surrendered Baby Law help parents who are unable to care for their babies? by ensuring that parents
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

This report concludes that, although the intent of the safe-surrender law is admirable, it

does not impose sufficient requirements on any state agency to publicize its availability, thus

potentially reducing the law’s effectiveness. Moreover, the State’s failure to provide consistent

funding for promoting the law may further reduce its effectiveness. However, the Department

of Social Services (Social Services) did conduct a media campaign from October 2002 to

December 2003 to increase public awareness of the safe-surrender law. We also found that

many counties have developed interesting approaches to increase public awareness of the law.

Although Social Services’ initial efforts exceeded its statutory obligations, it has not developed

any further goals for conducting additional activities to publicize the safe-surrender law

because it believes it has fulfilled its minimal obligations. The department also stated that the

ongoing awareness efforts at the local level, combined with the lack of an “alarming increase”

in the number of abandoned babies mitigate the need for additional efforts. However, our

audit revealed that Social Services is using understated statistics on abandoned babies when it

concludes that further efforts to heighten public awareness are unnecessary.
