PET scan results…


Finally, after a very long wait, we have spoken with my husband Jim’s nurse about the results of Jim’s PET scan last week. As of right now: The cancer is contained to the left lung and it is squamous cell (non-small cell) lung cancer. Both of these results are what we wanted to hear and we are very thankful. 

The plan is to remove Jim’s entire left lung. Jim will have several pre-surgery appointments. The surgeon will be setting the surgery date “soon.” We do not have a date or location for the surgery.  I really want to thank everyone that has been thinking of Jim and praying for Jim. Your words of encouragement, good wishes, and especially prayers really mean a lot to us both. 28Jan13.
