Stand back and read your own Signature Line as if it were someone else's. With that kind of history and time line would you tell someone they should cut their radiation treatment short?
That answer is obvious, don't you agree!!
Also whether or not you finish the few remaining rads, the next several weeks post Tx will most likely be worse than anything you have experienced to date so don't think by stopping everything will be OK.
