Have a Good Laugh on Me!

Anyone need a good laugh to cheer up their day? Well, I'm here to give it to you. I have a couple more pictures to share with you of the treatments. The first day we took pictures I forgot to take a picture of the after effect of my cage. Enjoy and keep chuckling all day. Laughter is incredible medicine for the spirit!

Me in the cage.


Me out of the cage.

This is what I looked like for about two hours after each radiation session. No wonder everyone stared at me! I look like I'm made of fish scales.

    That IS pretty funny that you went to the temple with the "fish scale" look. :) Thanks for keeping things light and fun. :)

    It's still better than what they did to my father-in-law to keep HIS head still. He got all of his radiation done throughout the course of one long day at the hospital, and they bolted a frame his head to keep it still! I kid you not - I joked that the wounds on his forehead were from where he had his horns removed. (You know, for being a Mormon and all...)

    Well, I'm thinking your trip to the temple immediately afterward could have been a faith promoting experience for other attendees. I think if I went in with the fish scale lady and came out with a normal person, I would be thinking of the power of faith that can heal anything.:)

    Wendi, You have to admit it is distinctive. No one else looked like this!

    Anita, I've seen how they used to do it and am so grateful they came up with a new way! The old way was pure torture!

    Cathy?, I hoped to give you a good laugh, but you gave me one! I hadn't thought of that. Maybe my "healing" inspired someone!!!!

    I'm glad the picture in your mind of the healed fish scale lady gave you a chuckle as it did me.

    Wendy, You made my day! I love to swim and always wished I were a mermaid. But I hadn't connected my cage face to the fact that I finally am one!

    I showed my 3-year-old these pictures. He loved them. Now every time he catches me on the computer he asks to see the "cage girl". Very funny.

    Jenny, I'm absolutely delighted that I could bring a little joy into your three year-old's life. Next time you are in Utah, you'll have to bring him by to see the real cage! xoxoxo
