I have skin cancer and will need radiation of my left upper eyelid-not going to be fun. Today I had a special radiation 'mask' formed which is involved in the daily radiation for some 6 weeks. While getting me ready for the mask, the lady doing this had me lie down, and started to unbutton my shirt for clearance for the mask,etc. I didn't anticipate this and had on my regular 'undershirt' , today it was a white nylon camisole with pretty princess straps and a cute bow in the front V. I could sense her surprise, then indifference , when she clearly saw the cute bow come into view. I sighed, just one more of life's many embarassing moments as a closet TV. I am sure no discussion will result, she may wonder,but what the heck, here is someone with serious cancer, what is so important about underwear.
wonder if others have had similar small embarassments? helen
