"... and then finish the chemo."

Yes, that was the original plan. Now, however, due to problems with our overburdened medical system, the surgery has been postponed. The plan now leaves open the possibility that all of the six chemo cycles will be completed first and then the surgery will take place.

My question is, is it reasonable to expect the efforts of a surgeon to remove the last cancerous cells in the body or is that so much more likely to succeed with chemo that the surgery should always be followed by one or more chemo cycles?
