Hi

Good evening, 

Im so sorry to hear about the unfortunate news.  I had to go through telling my 2 daughters and parents which was very difficult to do.  I went through so many emotions due to the shock as my surgeon and I were confident it was going to be benign as I'm not a smoker and I'm only 44.  I had a small lump removed with the middle right lobe last month.  Last week they said it was cancer so now I have to go through lobectomy surgery again to remove my lower lobe too.  It’s scary to go through all this alone but be strong and you will get through it before you know it.  

Hi

i had a lobectomy on 30th December (R upper lobe) please don’t feel ashamed, I too was a smoker. No symptoms & almost didn’t go for 2nd CT scan as I had other health issues. Don’t know what stage my cancer was, but will find out on 7/2/22 when I see my surgeon again. Made a really good recovery from op (Drs called me their star patient !) Surgeon fairly certain no lymph node involvement , ? Need some chemo/radiotherapy but looks unlikely so please keep your chin up ! 
wishing you all the best

Hi Mary 

I'm so glad you made quick recovery and hope it’s good news when you see your Surgeon. It is crazy how cancer can affect your life and loved ones around you like not being able to see anyone as isolating and changing how you live your life as enjoying the present by making every minute count.   I make a point of doing something new once a week now rather than sitting at home and crying all day.  Everyone finds there own way of dealing with things but life is too short so enjoy it to the max.  

Love Sweet x 

Thanks and good luck with the surgery

Thanks Mary
