My husband has small cell lung cancer and has had all his treatment now. It is so hard seeing someone you love in so much pain. I try to do what I can for him as he has just come home from hospital after suffering a chest infection. He just spends all the time in bed, wish there was something I could do.
Hi, this is my first time on here, My dad was told 2 weeks ago that he has small cell lung cancer, before they could decide on treatment he had to have a CT scan and a Nuclar kidney test and we are due back to see the doc on the 28th, we recieved a copy of a letter 2day that states he has stage 3 A and is going to palative chemo, with possible paltive radio
We feel as if we have been left in the dark a little as we dont really have a great deal of info to go on and what we are heading for.
His primary site is his lower left lung he has secondary in his Lympth nodes in the chest area and neck, the letter 2day states that this is on the right side.
I am so scared as to wot the future is going to bring, my dad is 70 and also has COPD.
So sorry that you have all this to get your head around.It is very hard at thebeginning waiting for a plan .There are many treatments out there now so try not to panic too much,easier said than done I know.
hi were having such a bad time just now my husband had a growth removed from his right lung in 2006,everything went fine then a bombshell dropped august 2010,after suffering terrible headaches violently being sick.the cancer was back within his brain,which was removed.then more scans were done on my husband.unfortunately after a pet scan was taken we got devestating news that his left lung is now affected so is his chest-wall also lymph nodes it is now [terminal cancer] my husband has theres no treatments avalable just a matter of time, hes only 54yr old weve been married 34yrs hes my best freind we went everywhere together he was my carer as im disabiled due to c,o.p.d.emphesma of my lungs iv also had majour back surgery done.i dont think i can survive without my husband were soul mates its devestating to watch someone you truely love care for suffer pain. good luck best wishes my thoughts are with you god bless
hi candy, enjoy about the time you have with your hubby, not what time you have left,i know it is hard because it's out of your control, but it is a journey we have to make on our own at some point, some days are just so hard watching your loved one slipping away from you knowing your doing your best to keep them with you for as long as you can. i'm feeling low at the minute, ten weeks since steve passed and i feel it now, but i do know he is watching over me and the kids, he will always be in your heart ALWAYS!!! please accept any help offered. i did it all on my own.( steve wish) not to have anyone .but you know if he was here i would do it all again
