I'm going to be starting radiation and chemo therapy soon.  I don't know how it will effect me.  I'm hoping not too bad.  I'm taking advice from my aunt that went through it.  As long as I stick to doing certain things I'll be alright.  I won't get so sick from the treatments.  Of course everyone else at this end thinks they can tell me what to expect when they have never had this experience. 

I'm staying at my in-laws house for the time being because I'm suppose to be taking it easy.  Everyone thinks I'm pushing myself too hard.  I just want to go back to a normal life.  I'm not asking for the world.  I feel like everyone wants to stick their nose into my business by taking notes at every doctors visit I have to make.

Maybe I'm blowing this out of proportion.  :| :)

It's really great that you're family is there for you. It's hard to let people help you. My intuition tells me you are a helper yourself. You would do anything for these people. They just want to treat you the way you would treat them if the situation was flipped. It might be nice to have a written record of what is sad at the visits. I sometimes take notes myself so I can look them up on the internet at home. Do my own research. I don't think you're taking it out of proportion, but maybe try to see it from a different perspective. I hope you feel better soon. I think you are very brave. You seem a lot like me, actually. I had surgery in the fall (nothing major) but everyone was trying to get me to relax. I had all my pain meds so I thought my body was doing great. Man, are those drugs delusional. I walked all over downtown because I was bored. The next day I couldn't even get out of bed. I didn't know how much I had over exerted myself. I stopped being so stubborn after that. For me, rest was the best thing of all when I allowed myself to.
