  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Hi Marisa

    We have been talking for the last while so you know I feel. I just want to again say how very courageous you are and have been all through this painful process. Just know that we are here to support you any way we can. Take care friend.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. 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.
