  1. i leave for Buffalo this afternoon and just wanted to thank all of you who have responded. You have given me vital information, support and encouragement! i'll be back soon. jenifer
  2. looks like you've been through a lot! it will be a while before we find out what stuff i'm really made of. Yep I have a lot of people to love. I's never perfect but always interesting! thanks for the reply. i'm working on the pic thing. so far it keeps rejecting my choice--i think pic is too big? jenifer
  3. i think i got it--thanks
  4. what a great site this is!!! wish i had found it sooner. i'm not sure how to do this profile thing. but here is the info middle of june had chest x-ray then CAT then PET then needle biopsy on July 3rd was informed by me doctor that I had undifferentiated carcinoma 1.7x2.5 in size it appears to be stage I but they will finalize staging following node biopsy during surgery. first I met with surgeon in Rochester NY who planned on during open chest surgery--I really wanted the VATS so I traveled to Buffalo as no surgeon is doing VATS lobectomy here. surgery is scheduled for Aug 10th at Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo NY. i'm 62 have 3 sons 3 daughter-in-laws, 5 grandchildren, and two more due (one in 7 days) a really nice man in my life who lives in Baltimore. 3 Dogs, 2 cats (one who just had his leg amputated) Today I feel wonderful, life is real good, and i plan on it continuing to be so!
  5. thanks for the info. i'm being real positive, but the unknown can be spooky.
  6. i am scheduled for VATS removal of lower right lung on August 10th and am really wondering what to expect. I have a 1.7 x 2.5 tumor in right lung.. The PET scan showed no node involvement but they will biopsy nodes in upper chest as well as lower to make sure. My needle biopsy showed undifferentiated carcinoma, which i believe is not what i would have hoped for. anyway just looking for support and information [/img]
