Is iressa the drug that many people mention as far as experimental? Is it covered by insurance? Thanks for any info. My husband is in stage 4 lung cancer.

    Thank you Tbone. My emotions are so fragile now I cry very easily. I have been on the computer non-stop as well. I wish you the best in Florida and hope to hear good things very soon from you. What tea are you referring to and what is the purpose of the tea? God bless you, Peg
