Thanks Lisa, Just printed the form. Barb

WONDERFUL!!!!!!! Now for that quick recovery. Barb

I'm praying for the best. I feel that you cannot be going to a better facility than Moffitt. I go there also. God Bless Barb

I'm so sorry that your Mom is going through so much.. You have my prayers. God Bless you both, Barb

Boy Frank did you say that well. Good luck with your test results, and God Bless you both. Barb

I'm so sorry that you had to join us, but you will find lots of caring soles here. I too am new to this site, but have found lots of comfort here. I can't offer you any advice because I had stage IIIA, and had surgery. So far so good. God Bless and stay possitive. He's young and should not have to go through this, but he will beat this beast.

Praying for you and your mom. Tommorrows the day. I'm sure she's going to make it through the chemo and beat this beast. God Bless, Barb

Sorry it took so long to respond. I am quite new to the site also. I just wanted to let you know that I am praying. The waiting is HORRIBLE! God bless and may those nodules be negative. Barb

I don't know of any center in that area. I live in Florida. I just wanted to tell you not to give up. If the Dr. is negative, and is still giving treatment, try talking to him about his attitude. If he doesn't want to treat, then find a new Doc. I'm glad that you are with your dad while he is going through this. I'm sure it helps him and you. My prayers are with all of you. Barb

Praying for that miracle.

Praying that all is well Friday. God Bless and take care. Barb

My Prayers are with you! God Bless

My prayers also. God Bless you both! Barb

Same as all the others. My swallowing problems were from radiation. Good luck and God Bless Barb

Hi Bruce, I had the chemo also. 6weekly along with 33 radiation, then 2 more chemo (much stronger than the first 6) treatments. I handled the chemo well, with the help of Kytril for nausia. The radiation set me back some. I did loose my hair withthe last two chemo's, made me very tired, but all in all was doable. My bloodcount even stayed fairly good. By the way my treatments started 4 weeks after my lung surgery. God Bless you. Barb

Didn't get to talk to My Dr after my Radioligy reports were faxed to me. Understood most of it but will probably call the Doc. tommorrow. But the important part is that all is stable. The report showed a small right pleural effusion, and an Ill-defined parenchymal opacities within the right upper lobe. It says it may be related to surgery or radiation therapy, and continued followup examination and imaging is recommended documenting stability or resolution of this finding. I'm not sure if I should have anything done for the pleural effusion. Plus I don't know what to think about the parenchymal opacities. Any advise from anyone. It's just been 6 months since surgery and 1 month since last chemo. With the mets to the lymph nodes I'm scared, not knowing what the next tests will show. Of course all of you know what I'm saying. You've all been there or are there now. I'm so glad that I found all of you. Any help is appreciated. God Bless all of you. Barb

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. I will keep you posted.
