Like David, I could not have asked for nicer people in radiation. Also like David, all I had to do was look around and know that nearly every person there would trade places with me in a heartbeat. I thanked the techs every single day for the treatment, and every spring I take in a couple of boxes of fresh bing cherries. These are the people who all signed a beautiful card and gave me gifts when I finished treatment. I was the first to finish IMRT and was kind of their test person. I had incredibly skilled surgeons, and although the chemo oncologist and I were like oil and water, he did a good job too, but I am convinced that it is the radiation folks who saved my life, and I do not hesitate to tell them. Even feeling my worst, a smile didn't cost me much and gained me a great deal. I think it is important that I show up at least annually to say hi, thank them, and show them in living color one of their "saves." I highly recommend openly appreciating the people who do that very, very emotionally taxing job.
