I was diagnosed last year in late July, so it's been 13 months since then. I've had it all, radiation, chemo and I'm about to have surgery. I have no new tumors since the first were discovered in my lung, bones and brain. All but the lung have been radiated out. As of my last scan, the lung is the only one left so they're going out on a limb and putting me into surgery to get it out--very rare!
Congratulations to all lung cancer survivors. It's the scariest thing in the world to hear, "you have lung cancer". And even scarier to find out it's stage 4.
I wish there were more stage 4 survivors!!
I quit smoking 21 years ago. I was 58 at diagnosis.
