Welcome Heather. Aren't these amazing posts by so many folks on this board? I feel like we are our own kind of special family here.
My hubbie also started out with vena cava syndrome - as you can read at the bottom. Like so many others it has been a rollar coaster for us. Now we are at a level place and enjoying it.
I recently read that the medical community hopes to downgrade lung cancer's label from being 'fatal' to 'chronic'. That is a little encouraging, anyway.
Best wishes,
Cyndy

You have been through so much. What a wonderful thing that you can reach 'acceptance'. I try to live this way also and it makes my life much less stressful. I noticed you also have RA, and so do I, along with OA.
I would think your auto-immune diseases would complicate your life even more.
Are you on meds for the RA?
Thanks for the wonderful post - if only all of us could understand the term 'acceptance'.

Just curious if anyone else in this age bracket had their hair grow back the color it was when they were 30 years younger? (after losing it through chemo treatments). This happened to my hubbie who turned very gray at first only to have it grow in nice and dark. He gets remarks about how young he looks. Lucky guy!

Hi Cathy. How wonderful you went to Maui. My kids lived in HI for several years and we got to go visit 3 times. It was so wonderful!
I hope the Iressa works for you as it is for my hubbie. The rash went away for him; he didn't have the eye bag thing except at the beginning before he was diagnosed correctly. Now he looks great after being on it since June.
Best wishes to you and happy halloween

Pam, he does know, and from my own experience with the loss of my mom, it helps to 'talk' to him when ever you want. I know I can still feel her presence every day even though I lost her 10 years ago.

Thanks Elaine. I wonder if it works the same for liver mets. Hope so.

I know where you're coming from. Sometimes other things crop up and we forget that it could be something else than cancer. My hubbie got terribly sick to his stomach with awful pains, vomiting that wouldn't stop, and it turned out to be a blocked bowel requiring emergency surgery.
Wishing you the best and by the end of the day hope you know what is going on and treatment started.

My hubbie had to quit his firsts chemo too and was put on Iressa. Amazingly is has helped him to remain stable for a while now.
Hope it works in your case too.
