Going from Stage IV Lung Cancer to Clean Scans

I am so happy for u and your wife she loves u so very much I Can tell ❤❤❤❤❤

My mother had a scan today. Looks like stage 4 cancer, which spread at least to the liver. She's still in the process of diagnosing.

This gives me hope

Five years ago on Valentine’s Day just a couple days from today which now is 2024 and I was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer not to be confused with non-small cell lung cancer. Was 36 years old and no one but my sister and I in our family had ever had cancer. My sister unfortunately passed away but before she passed away, I just knew that they hadn’t given her enough time when they said she was going to pass away and she ended up staying for months longer. Within 2 1/2 weeks after she passed away, I was been told after biopsies and speaking to quite a few doctors that I had small cell lung cancer at the age of 36 and that was very very rare. I was told that people normally don’t get it until at the earliest they 50s and most of the time at 60s and 70s. I was told I only had 2 to 3 years to stay on this earth. So I fought it and I started chemotherapy the day after I found out I had cancer. I got done with chemotherapy and I couldn’t even do the sixth chemo treatment because they started it in my nurse got my vitals and all that back in the blood that they had taken to see what was going on if anything and they had to stop chemo because I needed two bags of Blood, because I was about to die. If my nurse had not looked for something, that may be wrong with me, then I would have passed away. They wanted me to stay in the hospital for the weekend, and I would not do it because I always said I would not stay in the hospital, every friend I know and every family member that I have never comes out of the hospital and that makes a big difference to me and makes me fearful. So I went through the weekend and I came in on Monday just like I said I would and I got another bag of blood and after that they didn’t know more chemo on me instead, I did 30 rounds of radiation every day with the weekends off, and although I have gained a brain tumor and now I have melanoma as well they can’t find the small cell lung cancer anymore. It’s like it just disappeared. I have no idea what happened and no one else does either but instead now I have some sort of something in my lung that I have had some of the worst pain and going through the biopsies was absolutely horrible. For some reason I wasn’t afraid for them to cut off a large piece of my cheek and ear, and then graft pieces of skin from my shoulder onto my face, and I went home that day with what looked like a pin cushion on my face that I had to wear and then I had to wear, a big Band-Aid looking thing over my face after the time with the pin cushion on my face. I had no idea that melanoma could go inside and outside but I learned very quickly that that could happen. The brain tumor was about a year after I started chemo and I guess it’s still shrinking even after this many years and my head, because it was too close to do surgery on it was too close to my spine And where my head connects I guess where my skull I’m sorry connects. For some reason and I think it’s a pretty good one. I am very very very aware of what can happen if I let them cut off a piece of my lung, knowing that I have already emphysema which I guess now they call COPD. But I don’t have to thank God take anything for it so I have no idea what has happened to me at all and I have no idea and either did they know what is in my lung that hurts constantly and it’s in the middle of my two lungs also that hurts constantly and they don’t say they’re going to do anything about that middle and that was the one that I was told had too much scarring around it but they did the best they could in radiation those 30 radiations. So I am very afraid about that but no one seems to be concerned my oncologist tells me that I have gone a year without any cancer. You would think I would be jumping for joy and just think everything is going to be OK, but I can’t even put my arm up without it, hurting my lung and in between my lungs. On Valentine’s Day I did not celebrate Valentine’s Day because I know what it’s about and I instead celebrated five years still on this earth. I am now 41 years old and instead of expiring like they said at 2 to 3 years I prove that I was not a gallon of milk, and I was not going to expire, I did not do that alone and I know that. I know the doctors and nurses helped and did all that they could but I also know that a ton of people prayed for me and I prayed every single day as many times as I could and I still do and I never will stop. I’ve been on a immunotherapy for I would say 3 1/2 years and it came out right after all the radiation and all that was done and the brain tumor was done and it’s called to Tecintriq. I don’t know about the spelling but it’s completely for small cell lung cancer. I don’t know if it’ll come back tomorrow I don’t know if it’ll ever come back and I have no idea what’s going on in my lung right now but I know I’m not by myself, and I know that certain drugs have helped other people to go into full remission, and it never come back again, but unfortunately my sister did the same exact thing as I’m doing right now and she ended up passing away. They didn’t check her often. They did every six months and I won’t let that happen with me. I haven’t decided yet whether I’m going to go through this surgery or not with them cutting off a piece of my lung. I don’t want to know what it’s like to have to be on oxygen, and I have to pull something around with me. I would rather be in this pain for the rest of my life than something like that happen. I am very humble for being here for the last five years instead of passing away earlier, but there is something about this surgery that my body and my brain and my face is telling me not to do. All of you that believe in God, I pray you are blessed and bless you all of your family as well and all of you that do not. I wish you positivity and good health. 🤲🏽 i’ll say the same thing that my mother told me when I found out that I had terminal cancer, which was the only thing I can do is fight and pray and that is exactly what I’ve been doing. So maybe it’s worth a try to somebody else? Maybe you’ll stay here longer too. I’ll pray you do.

God bless everyone
