Second Radiotherapy Treatment

I took a shortcut to the Crystal Suite yesterday, tailgating a nurse through a door which had no entry signs. I read them first and one said only for patients and their visitors, or something like that. I thought, I'm a patient, so I went. It saved me 2 minutes of walking time going the long route. Try something once, no?

I dropped off my appointment card at the desk and went to change. Brought my book along to read while waiting instead of keeping all my belongings in the locker. Locker 11. The lady waiting opposite me kept her handbag with her so I gathered there would be no problem of keeping my book with me.

After waiting about 10 mins, I was called. Same stuff as the first day but this time they positioned me faster. Perhaps due to the fact that the marker lines couldn't be washed off. There was music this time and I was thinking: a typical song is about 3 to 4 mins. I came in in the middle of a song and left before the song ended. Wow! That meant the whole procedure took less than 4mins.

I changed back, picked up my appointment card. They didn't give me the timing for tomorrow. I hope it's in the morning 'cos I don't want to rush for cell in the evening. KH will be at NCC at 4pm tomorrow though but she laughed and said don't need to schedule my appointments to meet her. Thank you, Nurse Fiona, for this support group!

Guess which way I left by? The long route. No hurry, you see, since the treatment was faster than I expected. It won't be so fast today 'cos I'll be seeing the doc today after treatment.
