Carnation, I am so sorry to hear about your father in law. I'll be praying for you and your family.
Personally, I think the whole is chemo or radiation therapy really worth it just depends on the person and their views. I think the best thing anyone can do is research it and become aware of what they may go through if they decide to go through with it, talk to their doctors, and really consider if they think it's going to be worth it. Many people dont, many do. It has good and bad characteristics. Everything does really. Radiation, for example, can cause cancer as well as help treat it. Yes it's hard, not only for the person, but us as well (I've been through it with a family member too). Not everyone is helped by it, but many, many people are. Because of that, I personally view it as a good thing with good possibilities, but all this is just personal opinion.
Anyway, I'm very sorry. You're in my prayers.
