fight Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 Hello All, Exactly one year ago today I was told "Theres a malignancy there." Many tests and scans later I found out it was lung cancer. In a way It seems like it has been such a long time since I heard those words and in other ways I can re-live the diagnosis just like it was yesterday. I feel thankful that I'm am still here and especially thankful that I have spent so much quality time with my family. I don't know what the future might hold for me but I'm enjoying every minute of this beautiful fall in Colorado. Tomorrow I meet with the specialist to determine whether the Tarceva is working or not? I've been praying a lot and have tried to turn over all the worry to God. Please send some extra prayers up for me. I will keep you all posted. Take Care, Rachel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raneyf Posted September 26, 2007 Share Posted September 26, 2007 I know what you mean - I feel like it's been 10 years since I was diagnosed, but then I look at the baby and can't believe he's 1! I'll be praying the Tarceva's working. It's got to work for one of us. Raney Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
