An 87 Year Old Has Been Diagnosed With Breast Cancer

An 87 year old has been diagnosed with breast cancer (3 lumps detected) and she has elected to treatment by medication. She has been given a script fr Tomoxifen which she is starting after she does her bone density test tomorrow. She has been told of possible side effects but she lives alone and I am wondering if she should at least be with someone for the first few weeks to see how the medication reacts - she has a daughter who is not very far away from her. Thank you.
