On Xtandi and getting Photon radiation. Have had 8 sessions of radiation so far. It would be 11, but the (Veteran's Admin) machine keeps malfunctioning, often for 2-3 days at a time. Could these gaps in exposure allow the PC to gain a form of resistance to radiation? Side note: It's no fun getting all prepped in the "back" and "front" only to be told "no session today!"

No harm in the delay. It’s a very slow growing cancer.
Look on the positive side. It is better that they do a repair/recalibration then miss the target or do more harm.
Machines need preventative and ongoing maintenance. Come to think of it so do humans. Relax. I missed two sessions because of machine issues.
On a side note. Where did you get your Nav training?
Mather AFB, Sacramento, CA. Best training I ever had!
Small world. I taught at the Nav school there before going to USAF pilot training in the 70s. It was a great program.
