Understand that chemotherapy targets rapidly dividing cells, which include not only cancer cells but also some normal cells in the body.
Identify the normal rapidly dividing cells affected by chemotherapy, such as those in the bone marrow (which produce blood cells), the lining of the digestive tract, and hair follicles.
Consider how the destruction of bone marrow cells can lead to decreased production of red blood cells (causing fatigue), white blood cells (leading to increased infection risk), and platelets (causing bleeding issues).
Recognize that damage to the digestive tract lining can cause nausea, vomiting, and mouth sores, which may affect Henri's ability to eat and work comfortably.
Note that hair loss and general weakness are common side effects, which could impact Henri's physical appearance and stamina while working as a chef.
