The treatment for my prostate cancer included the hormone treatment that I received at my local GP practice, the brachytherapy treatment I already mentioned, plus 15 gruelling sessions of radiotherapy
The brachytherapy and the 15 sessions of radiotherapy were all carried out at the Christie Hospital in Manchester, UK.
At this point, I would like to say how important it has been to have my wife with me at every step of the way. It must have really taken it out of her so much, yet she never complained to grumbled about the disruption to her normal daily life.
The 15 sessions of radiotherapy were every day for 3 weeks and involved getting to the hospital in plenty of time each day, then waiting for the machine to be available, and after all of that getting home again.
i must add my gratitude to the West Midlands ambulance service for their transport arrangements
