    Being in the grey area is difficult.  My score was 18. My tumor was 1.8 cmm but not very aggressive.  I am 59 years old.  All that factors into the decision.  My oncologist asked if I would have regrets if it came back and I hadn't opted for chemo.  I asked if it could come back anyway and when she said yes I had my decision.  Chemo is a wonderful option but has drawbacks.  I chose to go with radiation only and will live with my choices.... hopefully.
