Not an easy decision to make, especially when you know the therapy you may receive will make you feel crummy. My personality guided me to throw everything at my stage 3 that was/is available. 5 years from now I want to know everything that could have been done was done. But I know everyone feels differently and deserves support for their decisions.

Yes, I understand the follow through on knowing you're doing everything you can to remedy this. I had 2 friends that said they felt reassured in completing the chemo and radiation treatments that were recommended to them as well. My spiritual advisor said, "stay the course!" Meaning from start to finish and not to stop midstream. I will do follow ups with the oncologist every 4 to 6 months. Thanks for your response.
