How this treatment impacted my life the most

Made me appreciate as a 60yr old that we are not bullet proof and that we have to be pro active to avoid problems - I had a bad run that year

If I had to do it all over again, would I choose the same treatment?

Yes

Why did I give this answer?

I didnt want a cencer living / growing inside me and as the decision re treatement was kind of made for me because of the scale, location and type of my illness - I just thought - it looks like its contained - lets get it gone once and for all
