Proton beam therapy at The Christie

The Christie is home to the first UK-based NHS high-energy proton beam therapy centre. If you are approved for proton beam therapy at The Christie, this video will show you what to expect.

I've been treated for sinus cancer and had my tumour surgically removed, but I have to undergo radiotherapy to be absolutely sure of getting rid of all of it. As it's dangerously close to my eyes, the team have approached The Christie to see if they will allow me to have Proton Beam Therapy. I've got everything crossed hoping they say yes.

Basically walk in after work, get shot with some protons, walk out better. 😂

As a person who just got news that he's going to have this, I am so happy to have a +ve treatment on me. (Hey, protons have a +ve charge)
