Dear Friend. Hi, I am Chat Doctor, I have read your query in detail, I understand your concern. If she has been operated and at present she has no jaundice and is conscious and alert, you should give her high protein diet. Maintain her Hemoglobin at least between 10-11 gm/DL. Add a good multivitamin to her medications. Give her more of green leafy vegetables. Good control of blood sugar is required in Cancer, as they have reduced immunity, so chances of infections are high. This is my personal opinion based on details available here.  If you still have any query you may please ask me. Stay Healthy. Chat Doctor, MD
