Hello, First great news of being in remission. I am 53 and had a lower right lobe removed via vats on 9-23-10, no chemo or radiation. I did however have chemo/radiation for anal cancer and completed tx on 6-30-09. So far so good as both cancers show ned. Now I do that where I'll be having a conversation and the words just escape me. Because my friends do the same thing that have'nt had cancer, I know they understand. Maybe its just part of the aging process. I know when I'm tired it will happen more. Don't feel stupid, we have all been there. I hope others will chime in. I wish you the best, Lori.
