There is no radiation from cancer patients unless people have radioactive seeds and this is low radiation, so it will not get out of them. There is no danger to you or other family members from people receiving radiation.

Shouldn't be unless they cut you open and exposed themselves to the radioactive material floating around in you. Bad joke, but that would be my guess.
