Bet you are happy that its almost over. For me the last week of radiation was the worst one. Thats when the fatigue really started to kick in. I stayed exhausted for almost 3 weeks after treatments ended. One big thing you have in your favor is your age. Being young you will heal faster and shouldnt suffer as much as someone older. Hang in thre and keep that wonderful attitude you have nad it will be over soon.
