Good on ya man!

What made you opt for Radiotherapy?

Chemo scared the crap out of me to be honest, I also hated the thought of the treatment being just as bad as the disease (And possibly dieing quicker due to it) I had read up and found out the odds where just the same with radiotherapy...but it would take much longer, guess I wanted as much time as possible in the end
...as it turned out, I think I made the right call...I shared my treatment time with a 16yr old girl and her family while she had chemo...we met up every week for treatment and kept each other company before and after treatment.
I had to watch that poor girl slowly get worse and worse, she lost all her hair(another point that scared me off due to being a long haired hippy) and she just kept shrinking away due to the chemo treatment.
...then one day I turned up for treatment and only her parents where there...they had come in just to tell me that she had lost her fight a few nights before...it was one of the most heart breaking days of my life, she was only 16yrs old and such a gorgeous person.
I hate that disease!...I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy

...Christ my eyes are leaking again...damnit!
