well today I should get my expiration date.
all the results should be in and what kind, what stage and where should be known


Stage 3 (due to lung collapse) squamous cell carcinoma--what a mouthful

chemo for 5 days off for 30 for at least 3 rounds
rad everyday (exc. weekends) for 5-7 wks


PET scan showed only the tumor in the bronchus; no sign of it wandering off

I was prepared to be told it had spread everywhere, so I guess I got some good news!!!

  1. HAH, I never asked for one, and they never told me. They don't know; they don't have a clue. Don't buy in to a date or a months left to live BS, because, they just guess.

    It's YOU that has the power, Melody. I think for me, I still tend to ignore the fact of my having cancer, and I try to just live. In essence, I'm not dying of cancer, I'm living with it. Yeah, I get creepy pills to take, and infusions every two weeks, but you know, it's all doable.

    Keep the faith, girl.
