Thanks everyone for your responses. You are all so right. My mom is really doing exceptionally well for her age, 71. I really do think that the IMRT did make a big difference in her side effects. And the fact that she did not have any chemo. I am so thankful for that.
She is one strong person, I have to say. I am so proud of her and the strength she has shown.
I still do not know how much radiation she actually had. I am going to go with her to see her RO in August and find out more from him.
I never did understand the dosing of radiation.


Gary I see that you also had IMRT and chemo.
What was your experience like with the IMRT??
Thanks again everyone.
