Hello, I am a newbie to the site and to LC. I received my dx the second week of May 2015, following lobectomy July 7, 2015 it is determined the dx is adenocarcinoma stage IIIA. I am 47 yrs old F married with a blended family of 7 children ages 29 to 15, and 5 grandchildren. The only thoughts I can allow myself to have are HOPE, FIGHT, SURVIVE, STRENGHT. Oh I forgot to mention I am a hospice RN for the past 10 years. So I understand the journey and the direction it may take me. But until there is a turn in my road I will KEEP up my STRENGHT, FIGHT to SURVIVE, and remain HOPEFUL. Words, even made up, have meaning. Words can make us laugh, cry, hurt, become angry, etc. So, if silly words or expressions can make me smile bring them on. [emoji4] I look forward to reading everyone's stories & struggles. Hopefully we can help strengthen one another and encourage each other to fight to survive. God bless to all.
