my boyfriend just got diagnosed with lung cancer but it was only seen because he was told to get a whole body scan after he was told he has 3 cancerous tumors in his brain.

I too active. Many marathons and always finishing top 10% of my age group. Scheduled for a lobectomy next few weeks. Anger. Why me? I took care of myself. Your own experience encouraging. Your performance is down from what once was but still accomplishing a revised goal. Doing the best we can with what we have. Thanks for the share.

I was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer which is very aggressive and usually without conventional treatment 3 to 6 months to live. I have now been alive for almost two years with no chemo, radiation of surgery. This is my second bought with cancer in 28 years since I was mixing Agent Orange. I am on Gerson diet with enzymes, I use essential oils and I do not have shortness of breath or coughing. Check out Gerson 2-23-18. People do your research before you respond to conventional treatment because they will try and use fear tactics. God bless! Still here 4-15-18.

My father was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer year ago, he has gone trough some of the treatments, but the cancer has spread to his liver. I'm curious if you are still alive and if your method would be better solution for him to test?
