Hi I am 34 years old and was told in April that I have lung cancer, I have two kids 13yr old son and 6yr old daughter, plus a wonderful husband. I am scared but very positive that I can and will beat this. Would love to talk to anyone. The more support the easier it is to deal with.

    Hi Jackie, it is alright to be scared because this disease is unforgiving. I also have lung cancer and am in remission since 'february of this year.I am 51 and also have two children (19 and 18 ) and a very supportive wife. Have you finished chemo and radiation or are you still in treatment? It is great to have support from family and friends. If I can be of any help just ask, Mike and Family. Godbless
