Cappy, welcome to the posting community. Radiation is cumulative, so you may experience some fatigue as the treatment progresses and for a while afterwards. But it can be handled. Don

Welcome! The key is your dad is Stage III. That is because of lymph node involvement, which means the cancer has escaped the lung. With Stage I and II, the cancer is believed to be contained and surgery can be performed to remove it. When one is Stage III or IV, where the cancer has escaped, puting someone through surgery would not remove all the cancer. In those cases, chemo and radiation are prescribed. Hope that helps. Don

Cat, so glad to hear you are okay.

I pray that the mastectomy is a success.

David and Karen, I am so sorry you had to be the brunt of someone's negativity. Glad you shared it with us. You two hang in there. You have lots of support from the rest of us. Cancer does weird things to people sometimes and that is the only excuse I can think of. Shake it off and move on with posivity (is that a word?). Don

Having a degree doesn't make one smart.

Happy Anniversary, you two. Lucie and I savor every anniversary and birthday, etc., now, too. "Don" is a good name -- I like that. Don

Kel, that is incredible. Maybe a button with "I'm a woman, hear me roar!" would be appropriate. Glad to hear the good news. You are a good caregiver. Don

Hi, Kathy, and welcome. Don

Lisa, thanks for the update. So good that your son is involved. I believe that will help him cope as well as be of aid to you two. By all means, have him post. I don't think there are any tennagers actively posting at this time. Perhaps if your son posts, others who are lurking out there will also come forward. Best to you all. Don
