Hey Clover
I am so sorry to hear that you had to go through such a bad experience with your rads. Like you say for most people it is a walk in the park after their chemo. I know it was for me but I have two good friends who suffered badly with their radiotherapy. They are more than fine now and have been given a clean bill of health like myself.
I think it is great that you have put your experience and your feelings out there because knowledge is a huge defence weapon to use if needed and that is what you have given the girls. I believe it is much better to be prepared for the worst and if it doesn't happen then it is all a bonus so well done.
I hope your last few treatments go smoothly and that they have informed you to continue to care for your skin as the rads go on working for a good few weeks after treatment is finished. I am sure you are aware of that though. Also take care with your immune system as that is still very low and will continue to be for quite a while. I know mine was because I was unlucky enough to get bronchial/pneumonia right at the end of my rads which set me back even further.
I am now nearly firing on all six cylinders so I am sure you will be there soon as well.
Sending you healing hugs, lots of love, Mich xoxo
