Since I started to go to the hospital every day to get the radiation therapy, it was the first time for me to oversleep in morning. When I waked up, it was 7:30 when I had to leave my home. Without taking breakfast, I rushed to the hospital with the result I could get there almost on time. Dr. Yoshinori Ito was a consulting doctor of today. He told me not to worry about the frequent visit to rest rooms. The problems will be diminished in the course of time. Right now, the most important thing was not to have cold at least until December 27 (the therapy is scheduled to end on the day), he warned.

While I have been coming to the hospital everyday, I realized the number of outpatients who come to the hospital when it was cold or raining decreased substantially. The most of patients who need the radiation therapy are aged people like me. But I cannot understand why they are so vulnerable to the weather conditions. Meanwhile, the hospital is too much concerned with aged patients. For example, they seem to control the number of outpatients in winter, I think.

Incidentally, I was presented by a friend of mine a bottle of gold liquefied water. I was told that it was good for intestinal disorders. I began to take the water from yesterday. Today I felt my physical conditions become well and light. It may be a good effect of the water. A two litter bottle of the water is said to be priced 500 yen.
