Radiation therapy is HARD. A young woman's radiotherapy cancer story in Sweden.
Malin & Tom
Yep, cancer radiation therapy is hard. No cancer treatment is easy, whether it's radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or surgery, but this week we're fighting the radiation therapy battle. Colorectal cancer treatment in Sweden is fantastic, and we're blessed to be surrounded by incredible doctors and medical teams, the prognosis for our colon cancer is positive, and that's allowing us to stay positive.
Malin's colon cancer symptoms have eased since the beginning of her cancer treatment, so hopefully by the end of the radiotherapy and chemotherapy cycles, things will be really looking up. There are many different ways to tackle colon cancer treatment, our journey starts with radiation therapy, then we move on to chemotherapy, and finally an operation to remove the cancerous tumor. Having rectal cancer at a young age is a definite battle, but we're getting there one step at a time.
This week is a bit of a round-up video, we're at Linköping's University Hospital in Sweden to start our radiotherapy treatment, and then we start round 1 of chemotherapy treatment. Join us next week for a full chemotherapy vlog.

Who are we?
------
We are a young 'Swenglish' adventure family, that consists of Swedish Malin, English Tom, and babies Charlie & Isabella, who are half and half. We love all kinds of adventures, including travelling around Sweden and beyond in our little budget family campervan, and we're currently building our dream campervan project.
But right now we’re focused on one thing: to be free of cancer. We've been on the journey to recover since Malin received her colorectal cancer diagnosis in late 2022.
