Very glad to hear that you are feeling better. You have done well and you are just about there. 1 more to go and then that is it - the end of the radiotherapy and onto the recovery part.

No one would blame you for wanting to quit - I know that I wanted to quit before I even started.

After my daily treatments I would often come home and just collapse on the lounge suite to rest, lots of people do that, it takes so much out of you.
