Ned, Thank you so much for posting those links. I wasn't aware that the Discovery Channel had a program dedicated to lung cancer. I can't watch it at the moment, but like another person mentioned, I'll bookmark it for later viewing. Any sort of links, videos and articles are always greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Hi, everyone. I think I already mentioned that my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer . . but I guess it wouldn't hurt to mention it again as I'm new. Basically, I have some questions concerning her nutrition. My mother has never been one to take very good care of herself (lots of soda, burgers, etc). So, I'm trying to get her to eat better following her diagnosis. . . but I don't know what kind of diet she should be eating. The doctor gave her a diet to follow, but I know that she won't follow that particular diet. Basically, I want to create a menu that's healthy yet enjoyable. Also, should she be taking any sort of vitamin supplements or is that a no-no? Thanks, guys.

I can't even begin to imagine the pain you're going through. When I read your story, I have to step back, look at my life and appreciate the things that are positive in my life. What an unbelievably upbeat attitude you have despite all that's going on -- God Bless You! I hope and pray that things get better. You have every right to rant!!! Why keep stuff bottled up? You a very strong! God bless!

First off, I want to say that this site is very inspirational and the people here appear to be SO supportive. I'm so glad to have found this forum. I, myself, haven't been diagnosed with lung cancer -- however, my mother was recently diagnosed and it's been a heartbreaking ordeal. Basically, I signed up looking for insight, advice and a *digital* shoulder to cry on. Either way, I'm glad to be here. I hope to meet you all soon. Take care of yourselves and bless you all.
