Radiation is tough but there are many here who have been through it an survived just fine. Getting though it is not easy but we can help you with all kinds of tips and advice.

Before you know it the radiation will be over and life will be returning to normal, or what we call the new normal. All in all I can say that the radiation was very unpleasent for me but I got through it and you can too.
