What would happen if........

I asked to day what would happen if they let the xray continue with the same intensity for longer.
The nice lady told me a hole would appear in my leg as the cells collapsed.
I asked if it would be painful and she assured me it would.  She also said the machine would not let that happen. Tomorrow I am taking a photo of the machine. It's huge head manoeuvres above me.  I think it has a face, albeit upside down.

I meet other people at Peter Mac.  All with similar ailments.  Some people stand in front of the machine for 10 minutes at a different intensity.  Of course we all share our specifics. How long we have been coming for treatments, how many to go.  There are some who are receiving other treatments, chemo or what ever. People with beanies covering  bald heads.
