She will have it every work day for the next five weeks. She is  exhausted. She is being radiated in the pelvis; front, sides and back.Is this normal to be so exhausted so soon?WE also spoke to a woman being trteated for Rectal Cancer. She told us about her skin falling off and how exhausted she is. This was very frightening for us to hear. Karenbeth Sun, 01 Jul 2007 00:00:00 GMT
