Thank you, MichelleP! I've been browsing the forum and have run across many words of encouragement. One of my favorites was about patients not being a statistic but rather an individual. And my own mom told me that sadness is a thief. So, I'll keep browsing for encouragement and hope to be able to provide good news regarding mom's treatment. As of now the thoracic oncology dept at MDA has mom's pathology report and prior scans and will be calling to set an appt next week. Baby steps!

Hello! Joining as my 58-yr mom has been diagnosed with sclc-ext and she currently has 2 brain mets. Our current status is her primary care has referred her to an oncologist and since we're in Houston we've requested an appt w/ MD Anderson. Looking forward to doing everything I possibly can to help mom fight this. Looks like I found some good company. Carrie - HelpforMom
