Roger Ebert says he's always believed in full disclosure, so he's explaining his long hospital stay. "I had a particularly intense form of radiation called neutron beam radiation, which is more effective for certain cancers, but which is also more debilitating to healthy tissue than conventional radiation," he writes. "Finding a solution to protecting the arteries is what has kept me in the hospital, and in bed, since July 1." ||
