Hi Mona Z and all my friends here, My name is Pat. known as baubo1234 here. I saw the surgeon yesterday and they are going to remove the lower lobe of my left lung completely and the cancer will be gone for good instead of just removing around the cancer which might spread somewhere else eventually. So I am relieved to finally hear what they will do..now I just have to wait for the date, he thought sometime the end of May, early June. I haven't slept thru the night since Mar. 30 when I heard the news, and last night I slept 10 hours straight through. I guess I was a little worried to say the least, but when I couldn't sleep I was on here or sewing (I got my summer dress half done the other nite when I was up till 2:30 a.m.) or quilting.
Thank you for all your kind thoughts and support. I will keep everyone updated as I hear anything.
