Welcome Barbara, I'm so sorry for everything that your going through it really stinks. But know that you could always come here and vent anytime you need to.. Your husband is scared and he is taking his anger out on you.My Dad would always take his anger out on my Mom until one day they were at my house and he was mean and I finally told him he needed to cut the S**t and stop taking everythig out on Mom,she helping you and you can't do this without her. He sat back and said your right and he was sorry after that he has a different attitude. I think he knew that if I was getting mad at him he was wrong because I never ever got mad at my Dad.. I was Daddy's Little Girl my whole life! Take care of yourself!! Love Michele

I would definitly suggest a cat-scan!! My Dad's doctor said that his tumor was there for at least 3 years and he had a chest x-ray every year. Praying for you Dad! keep us posted! Michele

Kim, I'm so sorry that your Mom is having a difficult time breathing,it's so hard to watch your parent struggling to breath. I watch my Dad struggle for 3 mts but we thought it was temporary we thought he was going to get better (DUMB).. All I could say is spend lots of time with your Mom and let her know how much you love her.. Also NEVER EVER give up hope!! Take care of yourself!! Love Michele

Adela, First of all please know how very sorry I am about the loss of your Husband. Secondly, forget about his kids they have to live the rest of there lives knowing that they didn't visit there Father on his Death bed. It breaks my heart knowing your Husband wanting to see them and they refused that's just down right selfish. Take care of #1 (you) Michele

Good for you Charlie!! It's great to know there are people who survive this beast!!! Michele

Lindy, If it was my Husband I would request a cat-scan of the stomach.. My Dad stomach was swollen and it was the Cancer, I'm not saying thats what going on with your Husband but be safe and not sorry.. My Mother, My sister and myself keeping beating ourselves up over the fact that my Dads stomach was so swollen and we thought it was the steroids.. Maybe just maybe he would have had a chance if we didn't wait.. So play it safe! Michele

Shanna, I could totally relate to how your feeling and yes it STINKS,it's a feeling you wouldn't wish on your worse enemy. My only advise to you would be to spend alot of time with her and tell her every chance you get how much you Love her.. One thing I know for sure is that when my Dad passed away he new how much I Loved him and I thought he was the best Father ever.. Take care! Michele

I'm so sorry about you Husband,but you will find alot of knowledge here so please ask for help when needed.. I'm not educated on SCLC as my Dad had NSCLC but there are many here for you.. Stay Positive! Sorry about your Dad Michele PS I'm a eastcoastladi too!!!

(((Carleen))) I can't even begin to tell you how sorry I am. Please know that I will keep you and Keith in my prayers. I'm not sure what God has planned for you and Keith but I'm sure he will carry you through this difficult time..Please know that you have tons of people here willing to do anything to help you..
