  5. This truely helps to keep the big smile on my face to hear this wonderful news! Way to Go Muriel! Hope you and Con are going out to celebrate!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!

  6. I'm sorry, I don't think anyone here is hiding anything nor is anyone here not being truthful about hospital's and doctor's. I'm not sure where you would get that idea. If you want peoples stories and who they doctored with and what hospital or clinic they went to, or go to, all you have to do is ask.

    Most of us have a team of dortor's and all my doctor's and hospital information is posted on "MY STORY" just click up below my signature and you'll fine all my information.

    I would like to add that it would be helpful if you told us what area you live in and what area your looking for treatments and doctors information. Take a deep breath and slow down we will do our best to help you through this.

  9. Hey Bud,

  10. Welcome rocknrollpaddy, (what can we call you for short other then "rocknrollpaddy?) :wink:

    Well, I'm not in the age bracket your requesting to talk to, but I was 43 when I was first dx.d with lung cancer stage IIIB and I don't know emotionally or physically if theres much of a difference if your 30, 40, 50, 60, or even 70 years of age when you hear those words "you have lung cancer." It's not what anyone of us wants to hear and it's not what anyone of us wants to go through. But I also can share with you that many of us DO live long and happy "new normal" lives after being dx.d with lung cancer. This IS doable, beatable, and treatable.

    There are TON'S of ups and downs on this journey, and everyone here can and will guide you through the rough spots and help you up when your feeling down. This is a GREAT place for support and understanding and information. We've walked in your shoes and some of us still do, and we'll share our journey with you to make your life easier and give you comfort. It does get sucky at times, but it also gets good and uplifting too and we do laugh alot and we do care about eachother. Your not just a number here, we work hard to help people through this journey because we care. Because we're lung cancer survivors and lung cancer caregivers.

  13. Dear Caren,

    I am so sorry you lost your wonderful father. Prayers and Comfort to you and your family during this difficult time. Peace to your wonderful father.

    My Condolences.

  14. Hey Donny,

    My Pulm Doc & my Radiation Onc Doc were the ones who were in charge of my Pneumonitis. My Onc doc was in charge of the chemo and blood issues. But, it all worked out well for me.

    Wishing you good results and sending you positive vibes.

  15. Well Calintay, That may very well be true and I sure wouldn't doubt you, but I do know that in our neck of the woods, they do still use cornstarch for serious open bed sores. I think a lot also depends on the over all picture of the patient and where the sores are at. The U of MN used it on me. Open sores can be a breading ground for staph infection too. It's a horse apeice I'm sure. Some do things this way, some do things another way. Medical Facilities are all so different in many treatments.

    I guess my feelings and thoughts for Caren are also comfort related. And having the patient comfortable if they are in pain and discomfort and if the oder is overwhelming.

    Like I said, I was just offering my 2 cents worth of what they still use here in our area for bedsores and what I know worked well for me and for others. When my mother and sister were in the last or late stages of there lc journey, we did all we could to keep them comfy. I still remember the oder Caren that you mention.

    My Best to you and your Dad,

    Connie
