  1. My Dad was diagnosed with limited SCLC in July, the worse day of my life. He has been through all of his chemo and had his last radiation treatment last Friday. We are now just waiting for the CT scan in a few weeks. He had originally finished up with everything a few weeks ago and the CT scan showed 90-95% gone. The Dr. asked if he would be willing to do 2 more radiation treatments and he did. I was thrilled with the 90-95% gone, but would love to hear totally gone. My father is 62 years old. He was a weight lifter most of his life and a hard worker and a smoker. I never saw him cry more than a handful of time in my whole life, but boy did all that change when he was diagnosed. It seemed all of our worlds change from that minute. My husband, my 2 boys ( 9 and 13) live upstairs and my parents live downstairs. There has NEVER been a problem with that in the 19 years that we have lived here. I personally have been thrilled that I was right here through all of this. He never was sick throughout his chemo or rad. and seemed to sail right through it. My mother and father are constantly worried about it returning or showing somewhere else. I try to live by the saying each day is what you make it. I still cry most days and my mother too, but I guess that is all to be expected. My father has great days and days that aren't so great, butI heard him talkling to 1 of his friends yesterday and really got laughing, that just made my heart smile. I so appreciate finding a place like this with a bunch of great people. Nancy I thank you a bunch for emailing me this site. I have looked around a lot and have read much. Thank You!!!
