Lung
My stories started in six years and four months. I had a bad infection went to ER they done a chest xray. The Dr found a small spot on upper left lung. I didn't see 2 months later had a appointment Dr I seen the nurse practitioner I asked if they had got report from ER. They hadn't, she called and chewed them out. She got report she was really upset. She sent me to get a Pet scan it lit up.
Shocking diagnosis
I didn't cry I think I was in shock. It didn't get to me until after the surgery. Four days later I knew I had cancer the surgeon came in and told me stage three in lymphnodes. He had told me I was going to die. Went to see oncologist he wanted me to have radiation I wouldn't do it I felt I was too weak. So I did six months chemotherapy.
Proud survivor
I am now six years and four months lung cancer survivor. I believe I'm still alive to help others with lung cancer. susiejo1943
