The purpose of this study is to improve healthcare received by people ≥ 65 years who are receiving radiation therapy (RT). The study will primarily examine patients ability to complete RT, changes in a patients' daily function and self-reported toxicities. To collect this information, study participants will be asked to complete surveys and physical and cognitive function assessments at five different timepoints in their treatment: before RT, End of RT, and at 1, 3, and 6 months follow up visits. Findings of this study will help radiation oncologists make more informed decisions for future patients receiving RT.

| The European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire (EORTC-QLQ-30) Score Pre-RT | EORTC-QLQ-30 Score consists of 30 items covered by 1 of 3 dimensions:
All domain scores are calculated as an average of item scores and transformed to 0 to 100 score range. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status/quality of life (QoL) represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problem. | pre-RT, time 0 |
| EORTC-QLQ-30 Score at Post-RT | EORTC-QLQ-30 Score consists of 30 items covered by 1 of 3 dimensions:
All domain scores are calculated as an average of item scores and transformed to 0 to 100 score range. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning, a high score for the global health status/quality of life (QoL) represents a high QoL, but a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problem. |

| Short Physical Performance Battery Score at Pre-RT | Physical performance pre-RT, measured by the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), a 10-minute provider-administered test of balance, 4-meter walk, and chair stands, which predicts disability and mortality in older adults and cancer patients. Each of the 3 tests are scored from 0-4 and summed for a total scale range of 0-12, with higher scores indicating better physical function. |
