And now that I can upload photos, there will be plenty more of them to come.
So today was the final day for week 3. It feels like have been doing this for ages! While I'm laying on the bed, they often talk in 'radiotherapy' language.
"left soup, right soup" I haven't a clue what it means, but I'm think they are checking the measurements for the exact point of entry for the rays.
I just close my eyes, wait for the buzzing and fall asleep. I was really tired toady and had a craving of sausage roll and ready salted crisps.
I have also been experience the taste of metal on my tongue. I think I have had this taste since the beginning, but never quite realise what it was, so now I know, I believe its playing on my mind even more, but not purpose.
I really hope this is a one night only affair, I don't think I can do this metal taste much longer.
So, the contraption that I were everyday can be found on these websites..

*Please note, its not me in the picture.
On a brighter note, I no longer have a chop up mouth. The corners have healed nicely and you can now bring out the mistletoe. (She says)
What a journey, lets hope this latter half isn't as bad as the first.
Thank God for the weekend.
