Thank you all for the supportive replies. I did not expect this third time to be as hard as it has turned out, although I am developing a healthy respect for the party line that going above 77 GY really does mean some serious damage with long lasting effects. Still, I will be home for Christmas instead of in a hospice as we first feared, so it's all good.
