During treatement (day 2 of 30)

This is what happens. Lee is going to type the commentary to the video. So you know all the bits.
I am just really scared about having a seizure in the mask, can you imagine!!?! what a fucking nightmare. That's why they have the tv's to watch me! and Lee keeps a close eye on me too. So if I have a seizure they can be in there asap.
If it looks like I am pinned to the bed by a freaky looking mask, then that's what it is.....TRUE as.
I said to Lee the whole thing is pissing me off already!! oh and I've got my own self check in card now.... how exciting.

Radiotherapy Treatment



Its me, Lee, the chief cameraman.

The video starts with Jane getting onto the treatment table. Her head rests at an angle so that one of the radiation beams can pass from back to front without damaging her eyes. Her mask is then pushed down onto her face and clipped in. Its very tight but can be removed very quickly if it needs to be.

When the room goes dark a number of green lasers are turned on and adjustments are made to the position of Jane's head so that it's in exactly the right position for the treatment. We all then leave Jane alone in the room, the last person pressing a button on the way out and then a second button when we get to the control desk. The alarm is the warning to leave the room before the radiation comes on.

At the control desk the two specialists read out treatment doses and double check them before starting the treatment. Each dose requires a turning of a key on the desk and the pressing of a separate button. The two cameras that are pointed at Jane enable me to spot if Jane is starting to have a seizure. In the picture you can see the radiotherapy machine moving to each location to fire the radiation in the right area. The actual treatment is happening when the black square on the machine next to Jane's head is rotating. The actual treatment only takes around 3 minutes once Jane is secured correctly.
