Guest JamieC777 Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 I am new here. I posted already in the SCLC section. My mother was Dx on 04/09/04 with SCLC and my world has basically been rocked. I am not prepared for this, I ache so much in my chest I feel as though I could explode. I need support and information. Her first appt. with the oncologist is today so I guess we will know more what we are facing then. Wish us luck. Jamie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Wood Posted April 12, 2004 Share Posted April 12, 2004 Welcome to the board, Jamie. None of us is prepared for getting cancer or having a loved one get cancer. But we manage, with the support of family, friends and this great group here. Let us know what you learn, and ask questions. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
