Marisa has had some problems going back on the steroids and has lost some mobility. She is mostly communicating through her husband. He is taking her to another hospital today for a PET scan. She had an MRI last Friday and has a meeting with the Radiologist this Friday when she will get the results.
-
Marisa is home from the hospital. She still lacks some mobility but otherwise OK.
-
Marisa is scheduled to be released from the hospital on Thursday and return home. Her husband told me that she is doing much better.

Hi Melanie So sorry to hear you have to be dealing with this terrible disease. You will find members here very supportive and a great source of information.
-
I'll say hi to Alex as soon as he return's from the tour he is doing down your way Randy. He even has a line of clothing out now. At least with ice fishing Judy there are no bugs. LOL
-
Well Bud it is good to hear that you were busy and out enjoying yourself. I can't even imagine riding that many miles. Now the fishing trip I can relate to. Another couple weeks and it will be ice fishing season here. Then we can get into the lakes that you can only get to by plane in the summer. Where the big fish are. Anyone that has seen the series Ice Road Trucker's will know the lakes.

Great to hear that you are back home Judy and sounds like you are taking it a little easier. Now I'm not sure about 60's being chilly. LOL When we hit -60, we consider it a little chilly. actually it has been very mild here for this time of the year. Last night it was in the 20's and usually it would be -20's by now.

Hi Carrie I am a survivor and did an interview with the local paper last year for Lung Cancer month. It had to do with the stigma of smoking and lung cancer. I also tried to convey the message that some non smoker's have a false sense of security about lung cancer. If I can help, let me know

If everything wasn't in the same building Denise you would have had to book off 2 week's vacation !!!! -
I asked my Oncologist that question on Tuesday. In my case he recommended it because he said that I am NED now. It may be different for different circumstances. I also had an appointment with my GP later in the day and asked her the same question. She also recommended it.

Great news Dawn !!!!! Congratulations.
-
That is great Mike! Keep it going
-
I agree it is different with no Judy starting the air. Not sure if she got lost on the drive home. Well it was -20 today and we have 6" of snow on the ground. So the only thing I can ride here is a snowmobile!!! Nurse Bud it is.

Larry Heron passed away this morning after a 2 year battle with lung cancer. Larry worked in my department for the last 5 years and will be missed by all his family, friends and co-workers. Another good person lost to this terrible disease.
-
It is good to see it specified as Lung Cancer.

I had a chest x-ray in February for something else but the radiologist noticed a spot on my left lung. Between Doctor's leaving, surgeon going on vacation, all the different test, etc. I didn't have my surgery until September. So I can certainly understand that waiting is very frustrating.
-
I had my last cigarette on the hospital steps before going in for my surgery. I always joke that when they cut into my lung a puff of blue smoke came out. That was over 2 years ago and I didn't take anything to help quit after smoking for 30 years. I guess I finally had the right incentive.

Hi Debbie I had my upper left lobe removed 2 years ago. Originally they were just going to do a wedge resection but decided in the operating room to remove the lobe. I just have 2 scars that are maybe 4" long each. I had VATS surgery and it is alot less intrusive than the large operation of years ago. I had my surgery on Friday morning and was released from the hospital on Monday morning.
-
That is great news Jamie!!!! It is so good to see all your dedication and hard work is making a difference.
-
That sounds like good news not matter which forum you post it in. Congratulations !!!!
-
Has anyone heard from Judy in the last few days ? Or has she said she would not be on the board and I missed it ?
-
That is great news Nicole ! I'm sure your Mom's sense of humor is as sharp as ever. Two years is a great milestone.

Good neighbors and great friends can help alot and lift our spirits when we are feeling down. An old saying is " Neighbor's by chance but friends by choice. "
