daggiesmom Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Has anyone heard what kind of LC Peter Jennings actually has? I wonder has he been here, reading or looking? Sure would be good if he were here. He would be a GREAT SPOKESMAN for LC. That's just what we need. Joanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addie Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 Haven't found anything anywhere that specifies...but as fast as they got him on chemo, I'm betting it's small cell. He was a smoker...years ago. Quit...then admitted he started up again during 9/11. Never did hear if he quit again or not. I too, am hoping he will be more forthcoming...once tx gets underway and he gets a grip on his dx. I think for all of us...it takes a little time to absorb what is happening, but Jennings being in the public eye, he's in a GREAT position to really bring some attention to lung cancer...and specifically small cell, if that's what he has. Since small cell only affects 15-20% of l.c. patients...it could use the extra focus and attention in terms of treatment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donna G Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 I have not heard what type of lung cancer he has either. Just wanted to mention I had NSCLC and I was rushed into chemo and radiation to shrink the tumor in hopes I would be able to have surgery (which I did). So it is hard telling what kind he has.
