I was diagnosed two years ago with stage 3B lung cancer, my bonus was Horner's Syndrome due to the location of my tumor (Pancoast). I have since been upgraded to stage IV. I am happy to say that I am still going strong and not much has changed in my life. I still work full time and enjoy my grandchildren as much as possible. I am still in treatment but have been lucky to tolerate chemo very well. I was not able to have surgery and do not qualify for any of the newer targeted drugs. There is hope!
