Welcome, LeAnn-
You definitely have cause for hope. Your uncle, like my wife Bev, is very fortunate to get a leg up on SCLC by having the surgery. Bev was also determined to use every weapon in the book and without delay. She is now approaching 3 years since diagnosis, with no evidence of disease (NED).
It’s a tough, complicated battle, but you have just found the best resource for information and hope. The warriors on this board KNOW what it’s all about.
Best Wishes,
Kim
