Radiation Storm Surge

Exciting day yesterday.  April Fools Day storm and so many power outtages.  I stayed on the seacoast and worked from home as the ice under the snow here was enough for me nevermind start out in the car.  Sheals had the day off from school so she wanted to join me at radiation.  Bill stayed home and worked and off we went.  They were running a bit behind and we chatted with other patients and their loved ones.  My turn came up and back we went.  Sheals got the whole tour and up on the table I go and get raised up to the machine.  Next thing we know the lights go out, the machine goes off, and the generator lights go on. Seconds later the lights come on but not the machine.  Evidently it takes approximately 12 minutes for the system to reset.  I was still high up toward the face of the accelerator so they needed to get the base power running to get me down.  It took just a minute or so as switches are tested and then it kicked in.  Once the system resets the staffs get me back there and work the routine of moving my body until it's "PERFECT!"  The parameters are spot on and I get my three hits at about 15 seconds each and I'm done.  Before you know it I've got two weeks under my belt/skin.
