It seems since I had lung cancer , and because I am open about it , that people come up to me all the time to share the stories about their loved ones who have lung cancer. Last evening I worked and when the night crew came to relieve us , one of the nurses took me aside and said " I have to ask you a personal question" " How long ago did you find out you had lung cancer?" and I replied " It was 6 yrs ago last December." and she said " My Mom knows about you having lung cancer, for her it has been just 2 yrs right now, no sign of any return, I will share with her it has been 6 + yrs for you , this will make her feel so good" I told her 2 yrs with NED , and explained about our friend, is great and reason to celebrate! I walked away feeling good that she had shared that good news with me. Donna G
