The very best thing a patient can do is to be treated at a major cancer center. There will be a team based approach with all the specialists getting together to discuss the patients individual case. They will collectively make a recommendation of a treatment plan. Cancer centers will go by a guideline when selecting what course of action to take. The patient can get second or even a third opinion just to ease their doubts and be certain they have the best team for treatment. Once the treatment plan has been selected, sometimes its hard to not second guess yourself. But put your faith in the doctors and your selection. At OCF we are not medical professionals so its not easy to attempt to second guess what the treatment plan is for another patient. I agree, it does sound like alot of radiation treatments but there is alot which goes into this, maybe the rads are a lower dose but with more treatments to equal the usual amount. There could be all kinds of things that come into play which would be why the treatment choices you were presented were given to you. I wish you both the very best with everything!
