Wanna see?

So, I have had some people ask what things look like in radiation treatments, and I wondered if there has been a few more that have tried to picture it as well.  Therefore, I got one of the radiation therapists to snap some photos for you...

This is the immobilization mask that I wrote about in a previous post.  You can imagine how someone who is claustrophobic would not do well with this.  This is why I decided to just buzz my hair.  This mask gives some wicked "hat-hair."

There is a hole cut out for the mouth for a test that they ran a couple of weeks ago.  However, I am smiling.  The radiation therapist told me to, but I did not think you would be able to notice.

Take note of the CD player that is sitting above the radioactive warning sign in the background.  I have had two "Treatment Tunes" playlists that have been the soundtrack of my journey.

Now, you see the massive machine.  The radiation emits from the round part above my head.  The entire machine rotates.  Therefore, the round part starts near the floor on the right side of my head and ends near the floor on the left side of my head (almost 360 degrees).
