Question Missing Vidaza due to Xmas and New Years eve. How bad is that?

My mother is starting her 1st cycle today. She is on a 5-2-2 schedule.
Her next cycle should start on the 22nd of Decemberbut we were told the place where she receives the aza treatment is closed in the following days as they are bank holidays (they don't open on sat or Sundays)

24th December
25th December

31st December
1st January

5th January
6th January

They suggested not to start the aza cycles on Thursdays or Fridays therefore they might suggest to start her 2nd cycle on the 7th of January or even the 12th of January.
How bad can it be to delay her 2nd cycle by 3weeks?
