I stumbled across a documentary on Amazon Prime of a guy doing an 800-mile hike through Utah. Within a couple minutes, I realized it was a low-budget affair. Nothing spectacular as far as being the FIRST, etc.... Just a regular guy (with a non-dramatic voice) doing a monotonous task (hiking). It was beautiful.

You might enjoy it--it's really just a guy processing a lot about life, and interviewing others who do the same. Apparently there's a wonderful amount of introspection and wisdom that comes with an 800-mile hike, in which you are mostly without human interaction.

Any particulars on the radiation? How many days of treatment? Were you treated while lying on your back or front?

(I work in a cancer clinic in America, just curious what kind of setup you use in Sweden. Thanks!)

Sounds somewhat similar. Over here we either do 28 + 5 days, or for some older patients, 16 + 5 (but a higher dose per day). Usually 4 positions for the whole side, then 1 or 2 for the tumor bed.

Will be praying for a positive outcome and as little anxiety as possible. It's tough to have cancer at such a young age, especially while having young children. You have shown amazing strength to get through all this treatment! (And props to your husband for being so supportive too!)

Edit: actually it would be fun to see what your treatment room looks like! (We call it a 'vault' over here.)

Have you looked into a similar phenomenon that doctors with drug abuse history will be allowed to maintain their licenses as well?

Thanks for the info!

We either do 16x2.66Gy or 28x1.8Gy. At our clinic we only treat supine. But I've worked at a couple that treat prone to reduce lung/heart dose.
