1 down, 49 to go

49 more trips to the dungeon and get strapped to the torture table.
Photon radiation this time as opposed to proton radiation last time.
Twice a day, Monday through Friday, for 5 weeks. When I pull up the appointments on my website portal, it shows 76 appointments pending...
They do play music while I am strapped to the table. The mask is a tight fit and I cannot open my eyes. Even worse, there is pressure on my eyeballs for the whole time and I have difficulty focusing for a period of time when they release me.
The good news is the American Cancer Society is providing me lodging at the Hope Lodge in Phoenix. I have a private bedroom/bath and share the kitchen, dining and living area with 5 other couples. So I am here on the Mayo Campus. I do get to go home on weekends.
