He has to make a choice whether he wants to live or not. My oncologist told me that, in his experience, patients who did not complete treatment had very poor survival rates.
Michele's advice is very solid - talk to your oncologist immediately about this. Forget the radiologist or the RO - this is an MO issue -he should managing all of the meds.
Your breaking the rules (again) Darrell - you have been told before that unless the original poster brings up the subject of religion, God or Jesus, then we can't (See Romans 13:1-7). You really think that guilt or shame is a good approach - thank God you're not in counseling.
