In early 2018 I was diagnosed with Stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that metastasized to my spine. There is no easy way to describe what it’s like to hear “you have cancer.” The only thing I needed to know was what I had to do to fight this.

I have done chemo and radiation. The spots have gotten smaller, and I will continue to fight.

So after 6 years of fighting this and after many Pet Scans Cat Scans and watching this….the Dr gods I have said that cancer is gone!!! I have another spot on my left lung that is a different type of Non Small Cell Cancer. So after doing a biopsy and ending up in the ICU for a few days they believe they can get rid of this!!! So last week I started 30 rounds of radiation and 6 rounds of chemo. So I’ll be a bit busy for the next 5 1/3 weeks but if it works I’ll do it !!! So I still need all your prayers!!! I can never thank you all enough for all you have done for me and my family …thank you all so muchâ¤ï¸
