  1. Hi, Mark-

    Who could forget Leslie!

    She was like a nova.

    A star that suddenly appeared and shone very brightly.

    Being a Postmaster, I was immediately drawn to her postings.

    I wanted to send her a hello, but was still lurking before becoming a member.

    I glad and touched to hear that she is still with you.

  2. Bev has continued her streak of clean scans

    (26 months).

    She’s feeling well, a little fatigued, but that’s no wonder as she’s been very busy living life.

    In fact, I have a hard time keeping up with her.

    Thank You, LCSC, for showing us that SCLC can be survived!

  3. Oh,no! This is too close to home.It just hurts.

    Joanie, you've given so much support to all of us here.

    Hopefully, in some way we can give it back to you.

    Wishing you peace.

    Kim & Bev

  4. Hi, Karen-

    My wife, Bev, also had PCI as the final step in her treatments.She was very fatigued.

    More than during her chemos and radiation. We think it was probably not only from

    the PCI, but just the accumulation of effects from all the treatments. It took several

    months to get through this period of fatigue.

    She just had her scans last week. Still NED since completing PCI in March '05.

    Hang in there!

  5. Objectively, it is a puzzler.

    But I look at it subjectively.

    Thank God my wife, who had no symptoms, requested a CAT scan.

    They found SCLC.

    She is well and NED 2 years out of treatment.

    Without the scan, I don't see how she could be in the same boat she's in now.

    If CAT scan results are also showing "benign" lung cancers(!),

    then methods will be developed to cull out these results.

    Maybe it hasn't been proven objectively to be beneficial, but I'm a believer.

  6. In the meantime, Johnson doesn't recommend routine CT scans. "There's nothing more powerful to protect yourself from lung cancer than stopping smoking," he said. "CT scanning is not the answer. Stopping smoking is the answer."

    Stopping smoking will not detect tumors that you don't know about.
