Strong in Faith yet still falling apart...
Falling apart but faith is strong. Having a hard time accepting the "5 year" survival rate diagnosis of my dear loved one, He was diagnosed with Kidney cancer and after removal of kidney tehy found at his next scan it has spread to his lungs (was found quickly) but already on both lungs. So far he just finished is 3rd round of Chemo last friday and 4th round and scans will be on his bday on Oct 4th. My faith knows that he can be healed and the healing has already begun... just wanting to hear a few positive outcomes or stories of over 5 year survivals or Maricals and prayers... because the last thing I should do is google this horrible prognosis. looking for more strength and positive stories. Forever is not long enough for this amazing person. Many prayers and blessings to all in this group.

Hi MjM,
Sorry to hear what you are going through.
There are plenty of 5 year survival stories among the users here. But that rate is so very depending on staging, grading, histology and a number different factors.
I you want some detailed feedback you need to share a bit more about his medical details.
Also, you write chemo. Chemo is never used for RCC. So I guess the treatment cycle you refer to is probably either immune therapy, inhibitors or something else.0
