And they were like, go home and think about it.

And I was like, no, I just want to say, like I'd done radiotherapy in the past and it hadn't worked.

And I knew the radiotherapy wasn't going to get me very long.

So I just said, no, let's just do it.

Like, and let's just try it.

So I signed there and then.

And they just said they'd get back to me in about three weeks.
