Gamblerpl Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 I know I'm one of the "lucky ones" to be a canidate for surgery and today was told by my surgeon that my breathing has improved and I can have the surgery to remove the right upper lobe. The bad news is, the CT scan shows the tumor has gone from two cms to three cms, so they are doing the surgery this coming Monday, Nov 1 instead of Nov 8. He said it needs to come out now! Please pray for my family as this is a very scarey road we are about travel down.. travel up (positive thoughts)!! Thank You, Paula Quote
cindi o'h Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Hi Paula, I am glad that your breathing has improved... I know that was a major concern. Of course your family will be in my prayers; as well as divine guidance for the hands of the surgeon. Your family is welcome here to vent or ask questions too. Cindi o'h Quote
