Kathy - Welcome. I, too, wish you didn't have to be here, but you couldn't have come to a better bunch of folks! I remember after my diagnosis last July - I couldn't look at my kids with out crying. Emotionally, I was a wreck. Time does make it easier. I found comfort in writing on this message board - even if I don't know medical info, etc. I would try to send a comforting word. It, in reality, helped me. As for the man your husband saw just starting his chemo - I found out a lady from my church was about to start chemo. She had another type of cancer and was having a different treatment. We really didn't know one another, but I just called her one day (just so happened to be the day she was starting chemo) and we talked and talked. I felt so great just to be able to share what experiences I had, and she was greatful to talk to someone who had been there. Everyone here has been there. Keep in touch and lean on us any way you can. Prayers for you and Tim. Terrie

Sandy - Lots of good vibes and prayers from me, also! Best of luck! Terrie

Shannon and Mike - What great news!!! I'm sure better doctors are ahead!! Terrie

Fay - What wonderful news - may God continue to bless you and your Mom! Terrie

Deb - What great news!! You can't see me right now, but I'm doing the "dance of joy" and it's for you and your Dad! Terrie

Dear Spunky - Just a little input here. I was diagnosed last July with NSCLC, and I had been coughing up blood for years - my PCP just told me it was my asthma - so I don't know if that particular symptom is necessarily "towards the end". I had chemo, radiation and surgery after those "coughing up blood" days as well as being on seven types of medication for what they thought was "asthma". There is so much hope and positive news on these posts - I'll be praying for you both! Terrie

Minnie- Sending lots of good vibes and prayers your way!!!! Terrie

Hi - Just wanted to add my prayers to the list - for you and your family as you fight this thing. Good luck and God bless! Terrie
