Hello and Welcome,
I am a 5 year survivor of adenocarcinoma and I can remember when I was 1st diagnosed officially, like it was yesterday. I never thought I would be able to mentally deal with the cancer diagnosis, non the less have the courage to face the upcoming physical challenges it brought.
Flash forward 5 years and I have had a lung removed, a paralyzed vocal cord, 6 different chemo/tumor drugs, radiation to my chest, spine, pelvis and skull. I am still here and enjoying life!
I found alot of hope from this site by reading other survivor stories and I encourage you to read the stories in the My story section. I would also recommend that you don't read all the statistics on lung cancer, they are very outdated.
Good luck as you begin your journey and keep us posted on your treatment.
You can be a survivor too!!
Wendy
