    Kenny,

    I do not know how I would handle the news you received. MD Anderson is said to be very good and I'm very hopeful they will respond quickly.

    Hugs and prayers of healing.

    So sorry
    I am so very sorry to hear this. Just what you don't need! Good to know you are in excellent hands.

    As you may recall, I had brain tumors (3) diagnosed last December. Scared the hell out of me. But, they were treated (in my case, by whole brain radiation -- to get rid of any invisible nasties -- followed by stereotactic radiation to the three lesions. I've had follow up brain MRIs and have had no further problems. Functionally, I am 100% -- still working, still walking, still playing.

    Obviously, it's not what anyone wants to hear....

    I will be thinking of you. Please keep us posted as you are able.

    I am so sorry to hear this
    I am so sorry to hear this Kenny, let's get to getting that stuff taken care of and go back to the lung issue. I know when I get too much info/stress at one time I can't really talk until I have cried. You cry as much as you need to and I will be praying for you.
    May GOD bless you.
