Wait and See

The Green gantry (Pencil Beam) is still having problems so yesterday and today my treatment is on the Yellow gantry (Scatter Beam). Transferring from one gantry type to another is not a simple task. Transferring from a scatter beam gantry to a pencil beam gantry requires input from your doctor, a physicist, and an engineer. They may also need to fabricate an aperture, which requires a machinist. (Apertures are not required for pencil beam)

My treatment today is at 2:20 pm (Scatter Beam) and tomorrow I’m not sure what time my treatment will be. I’ll have to wait and see.

Tomorrow should be my final treatment and I look forward to ringing the chimes.
