what's up

It took a while to get the radiation procedure setup and appointments scheduled. I went in today for the first treatment. This first treatment is called a dry run. This means that there was no radiation given, just a test of the setup and procedure to make sure everything is ready. They bolted my head to the table with my radiation mask, and lined up the lasers to my tatoos and took some pictures of my head and lungs. I will receive my first treatment on Monday morning at 8:30 and more treatments everyday for the next two weeks. Wish me luck.

P.S. Does 'everyday' mean Fri and Sat too, or just the weekdays?
