'Radiation destroys the immune system, especially the bone marrow that lies at the very heart of the immune system. It is the immune system which heals cancer and keeps it at bay - not radiation or chemotherapy drugs which merely treat the symptoms (tumors) of cancer. Radiation and chemo alike often inflict major damage on healthy cells and organs, further weakening the body and in many instances causing damage so severe that it ends up killing the patient. In many forms of cancer more patients die of liver and heart failure than are saved by chemo or radiation.'

Yes I've heard doctors say the liver will take him before the cancer does. Living wills are very important.
