Just a fact for you to keep in mind. John had bullae on his lungs (air sacs) which alarmed the RO but John was a diver too and when I brought that up, the MO thought it was a reasonable assumption.

If you are getting double doses on a day, you will need several hours of rest time in between doses, you can rest in the Radiation Care Centre. The Lodge is a good idea, and a shuttle will take you to the hospital for treatment and back. They also used to pay the cab fares if you he shuttle is not available, but I don't know if they still do that. The chemo is largely a radiation sensitizer. John only got two doses of the three, because he developed deep veined thrombosis. The MO said it would not make any difference to the outcome. Some members on this forum also didn't get the third dose for various reasons. That will be a factor you may want to consider when making your decision. The chemo also can wipe out the stray cancer cells. Do talk to your MO about that.
