Hello, I am glad your wife shows no sclc in the lungs. As far as the other spots I am not familiar with sclc, as I had nsclc and don't know what the other spots could be. I visit the Inspire lung cancer web site, and there are survivors there that might be able to help with your question. I am praying that its just inflammation and it will go away. I wish you and your wife well. Lori

Lori - Can you tell me your story of Nsclc?
My mom was just diagnosed with nsclc stage 4. She is metastatic to the pleural lining and space outside the pleural lining. We found out 3 weeks ago and are now still testing and figuring out how to treat. The pleural space keeps filling with cancerous fluid so we will either do a pleuradesis or a pleural tap before starting chemo. I am interested in alternative treatment also. I believe she will overcome this because she is strong and a fighter. Anyway, I am trying to learn the stories of other survivors of nsclc and if anyone is willing to post on our blog so others may read it. It is www.cindyhudson.blogspot.com.
Thank you and God Bless!

I will be a prayer "warrior" for you both!
Dearest Chad and Linda,

Along with God's love and protection, the love and devotion that you both have for each other, will see you through.

My prayers are constantly with you both. I ask God to protect Linda, limit any side-effects of treatment to the minimum, continue to bless her with strength and courage, peace and love. I pray the same for you, Chad. Cling to Him, cling to each other.

Blessings on you both,

Lucy

Hang in there Linda and
Hang in there Linda and Chad. Hopefully this new round of chemo will knock the socks off the beast! You have a host of people rooting for you and keeping you in our prayers.

Hello, I just saw this request today. I was very fortunate to have had the cancer caught at stage 1a as I was being scanned for follow up to anal cancer. I had a lower right lobe lobectomy and that comes with an 85% cure rate. I was a 35 year smoker up until the anal cancer diagnosis on 5-4-09.

Now if you go to the Inspire web page I talked about, you will find many stage IV survivors. One just came up to his 11 year aniversary. There is a lot that can be done nowadays. As a matter of fact one of the anal cancer survivors on CSN had metasis to the plueral lining and completed treatment in March and presently is showing clear on her CT scans. If you go to the anal discussion board her name is JDuke.

I will have you and your mom in my prayers. Lori
