edivebuddy got a reaction from Marie002 in Waiting in Limbo
Waiting truly does just suck. Not like the hurry up and wait of boot camp. More like waiting in a hospital for word on a loved ones condition. Just it's you.
They are most likely waiting on genomic testing results. This will guide their treatment. Normally 2 to 4 weeks. Hopefully you've had an MRI by now and are fully staged.
Know this. Lung cancer is not an automatic death sentence. I was diagnosed stage IV with Mets to my liver, skin ,and brain July 2020. The next month I developed a whole new stage 3 head and neck cancer. I've been in full remission since March 2021.
If you read the statistics just use them as a guide to treatment. Don't trust them as a guide to life. Trust that you can be treated.
