Keith, I wish I could have read this post 3 years ago. If it made me laugh this hard 3 years out I am positive it would have done a world of wonders for me then. Thanks for making me see the humor in it.
When I was bolted down for the 1st time, I was afraid the "zap" of radiation hurt. No one told me. You can imagine how hard they laughed behind my back when I began asking those type of ?'s. Get this one. I was 6 months pregnant and a lead shield had to be built around my belly every time I took radiation . One day, the techs had it almost completely in place and I began throwing up. They had to lift it up quickly and imagine a young man trying to hold onto the shield WITHOUT taking any lead pieces out! (I think the table held 9-12 lead shields.) Bless him for trying to save me from choking on my vomit.
