I’m 83 years old and have just been diagnosed with lung cancer.. my surgery is on the 2nd Dec.. I am still struggling to come to terms with the diagnosis.. 

the surgeon has told me there is no spread to the rest of my body so I’m grateful for that .

would like to connect with other people to have and give support
