Facing treatment decisions when feeling overwhelmed is one of the most challenging aspects of cancer care, and these feelings are completely understandable after everything that's been endured. The positive response shown on the scan is encouraging news, and many community members find it helpful to discuss their concerns about continuing treatment with their care team, including how they're feeling physically and emotionally about the remaining sessions.
