Unfortunately, chemotherapy is still the best thing to treat many cancers.

We need to try harder to find other treatments. Poisoning the body is quite an unpleasant experience.

I’ve not really educated myself on the details of cancer treatments (I’m fortunate I’ve not had to learn yet), so my uneducated assumption was that chemo always did something for cancer, it was more a matter of weighing how much it helped fight the cancer vs. the harm it did to the otherwise healthy tissue/organs.

I wouldn’t have guessed the there are types of cancer where chemo just wouldn’t work at all.
