Hey Yomammasayshi - Question for you - have the docs tried cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen on the cancerous spot? I am a stage III survivor and whenever I get any kind of raised or textured spot, freckle or lump on my skin anywhere since my diagnosis four years ago, I simply buy a canister or two of Dr. Scholl's Freeze Away liquid nitrogen and freeze the spot until I am sure it has been fully frozen (as little as 20 seconds to 1 minute). Soon the spot swells and blisters and scabs and heals and about two weeks later, the thing is GONE.
If I keep the spot out of the sun during healing there is no scar at all. It's fantastic. Freezing it will kill it down to its roots and no trauma or disfigurement will result to the area, unlike if she has a big divot cut out by the doc. Surgeons live to 'cut'. They'll take a nice big gouge of flesh and leave a big wound in her body in order to justify their expensive education. Freezing is by far the better solution.
If by chance any of the cancer appears to still be detectable after the first freeze, you simply hit it again. I had a thick painful lump in my calf that I had to freeze about 6 times over the course of a week, and that did the trick. A small freckle-sized spot usually is killed on the first attempt.
The Dr. Scholl's product is identical process to what the dermatologists use in their practice. If she can reach it herself it is easy to do yourself. If not, employ a sensitive family member to do it for her in the comfort of her own home.
I am available for questions if she has any.
Here's an article on the subject:

Cryotherapy
(Or cryosurgery) is used for some early squamous cell cancers, especially in people who can't have surgery, but is not recommended for larger invasive tumors or those on certain parts of the nose, ears, eyelids, scalp, or legs.
