Guest dsrtrat011 Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 Visited with pulmonologist today and he is still talking about "cure" with a huge grin when he says it. The biggest contributor to that possibility has been the early detection of the tumor. While I have lost two thirds of my right lung, that is a small price to pay for life. Thanks again to all for the support of this site 'cause there are still hurdles to be crossed before I will be convinced. BTW Gave up the daily cigar so, at this point, have gotten smoke free for the first time in 50 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
