I’m going to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, FL. I have small cell lung cancer diagnosed AUG ‘25. I don’t know what stage. The nodule looked pretty big to me. I had pet scan. Was told the rest of my body was clear. Had bronchoscopy and lymph nodes are clear. Having another cat scan Sept 11 and a MRI on my brain which will be scheduled on 9/1. I’m 85, but life is still precious.

On the 11th they did what I think is called mapping and made the mold around me that I will lay in for radiation treatments. 9/22 will be my MRI for brain. I’m hopeful, but still holding my breath! Thanks for asking 😊
