Lung Cancer Survivor

Next month I will be a 10 Year lung cancer survivor.  I had my left lung removed, 33 sessions of radiation, with COPD and have to use oxygen 24/7 but I am still here.  I hope this will give some of you hope for you or your loved ones you can survive lung cancer.

Congratulations..you have really overcome a gigantic obstacle..if you dont mind me asking.  Which stage was your lung cancer in?  My dad was diagnosed with stage iv and is currently undergoing radiation and chemo.  I hope he can fight through it like you did
