I always have wondered why radiation is skipped on week-ends? I heard once it's because our bodies have a chance to recover before starting another week. Or, is it for convenience since they are closed on Sat and Sunday. It would be interesting if there was a study comparing 35 straight days and 25 days with the week-end offs.

It's unfortunate for those still in treatment over the holidays. I saw our radiation dept. was closed Sat-Tuesday last week.
