Joanna is so right...........a countdown helped me have something to focus on. The highlight of my day during radiation was when I got home from my appointment and was able to cross off another day on the calendar on my fridge. I still have that calendar, it was a positive object for me during that time.
Good luck with it. I didn't have any chemo so cannot help you there, but I did seem to get more tired as radiation went on.
