Dress appropriately - I always dress one level higher than the job I am applying for, so dress/pantsuit/skirtsuit would work. Be sure hygiene, makeup, hair and jewelry are appropriate.
Introduce yourself as you shake hands.
Act enthusiastic - research the job and the hosp etc. so you know what's going on - it shows initiative.
Be on time - go early and read a book in the lobby if you have to.
Take notes - bring a binder or portfolio to jot notes.

Tell the truth. Tell them you had to have surgery and had to recuperate......and that your son was diagnosed with cancer but is fine now. Just let them know you had some problems, but you are really happy to be getting your life back together. Don't let them think you are having any further health problems with your son. That is what they are worried about is that you will be able to show-up for scheduled work days.
