Hi, I have just joined this forum.
I am 80 and finished 7 weeks of Radiotherapy two weeks ago. Feeling better everyday now but not much tastes right yet so eating is not easy. Energy and motivation are also improving
Good luck Shrek. I am really happy to share anything you want to find out about
Hello Wallis welcome to the community. Wow! 80? Huge huge congratulations on getting through such difficult treatment
Recovery means steps back as well as forward but a day at a time gets us there. I’m a month away from my five year and living well
Do stay and share in the group.
