Hi Bruce,

I am a born again Christian as well. Praise God for your faith. I just finished 28 sessions of radiation therapy for larynx cancer. I just saw my surgeon and the tumor is gone. We follow up in January.

I can speak to the radiation treatments. Being bolted to the table was not that bad for me. I basically practiced deep breathing techniques to get through it. About the middle of the third week I started getting a sore throat. By the fourth week, I was eating soft foods and liquids. My wife made me some delicious purées of chicken stew and pot roast, which kept me going.
I had to drive about 40 minutes to my appointments as well. I was able to drive myself the entire time.
What helped me stay strong was getting to the gym regularly and to keep moving. Try to stay as active as you can
I will be praying for you brother.
