Muriel Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Hi Coni. Welcome. We're here to offer support to you and your hubby. Could you tell us a little more about his situation? When was he diagnosed? Has he had chemo? How's he doing now? And how are you doing as his in-home support? Muriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wendy Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 Welcome Coni! I understand only too well how much chaos a lung cancer diagnosis can bring. Look around this site, read some of the stories in the my story section. People are now living with cancer and outliving the doctors prognosises. Let us know how we can help and prayers to you both.

SandraL Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Welcome Coni. Yes the devastating diagnosis of LC has a way of making us crash hard. But it does get better once treatments get going. You are right, this is a great site. Lots of good people, support and information. I look forward to seeing more posts from you.

Donna G Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Welcome Coni. glad to hear that your husband responded well so far to his treatment and is putting back that weight loss. Riding motorcycles is getting quite popular in my neighborhood for the young and the "older" crowd. The guy across the street even rides in a suit! Keep us posted.
