Hello, my name is Val. I was diagnosed oct 2006 with stage 111B NSCLC. I had 700 ml of plueral fluid draided from my left lung with was positive for cancer. I have basically been in treatment since. They tell me I am inoperable and incurable, BUT, I my disease is manageable. I have 2 children, 16 and 9, they are my inspiration. I seaparated from my husband shortly after I was diagnosed. He was not emotionally able to deal. Any advice or comments are welcome. I am looking forward to meeting you.
