Donna G Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Lester I am glad to hear that your Doctor says you are improving. That is GREAT NEWS. Do you mind if I ask how old you are? I was 50 years old when I was diagnosed. I am now 69 years old. Lung cancer hits people of all ages. Some are even in their 30's others even in their 80's. Hope you continue to do well.
