Advice regarding cyber fraud to a helpless uncle I know.

So I went to the bank today to withdraw some funds. There was an old man from our village complaining to the manager about money not being in his account. He is an auto driver and I know him through my relatives. So I asked him what happened.

So he says he got a call from an unknown number last night around 10. The caller sent a scanner and a picture with a kid in the hospital. And screenshots from gpay showing paid amount of 35000 to the uncle's account. He then told the uncle that he accidentally sent the money meant for the kid's blood treatment to the uncle. And wants it back. The uncle is not very educated so he didn't check the balance. That's what he told me. He paid it back. Then again he got a call of paying 55k(?) I'm confused about this part as well. So he paid 90k in total to the fraudster. The other guy contacted him through WhatsApp. I have offered to complain through the cyber website. Is there anything else I can do? Realistically what are the chances of getting it back?

Thank you so much. And please help me out so I can help him. He looked so lost and sad.

Urgent question!

My father has started his standard chemotherapy (cis+gem) after his cancer progressed to MIBC. I just had a talk with our oncologist regarding long term treatment. He explained about chemotherapy and radical cystectomy and bladder preservation options. But then he said instead of just Chemo he recommends chemo+immunotherapy for better results.

For context, my father's disease was T1 NMIBC, it progressed to clinical T2 MIBC, it has not invaded outside of the bladder yet. There's no evidence of metastatic disease.

My questions are,

Is it really drastically better than just chemo?

Has anyone done this before?

What makes it really different?

Immunotherapy here is very costly compared to just chemo, the research I did says that if the disease is not yet metastatic it is not inherently better. But I want to know real world experience. Kindly share if you know anything regarding this matter.

Questions regarding port for chemotherapy

People who have had Chemotherapy (cisplatin + gemcitabin), what kinds of effects did you get?

Is getting a port necessary? How is the process? Do you think it's better to get one?

Please tell about your experience.
