My aunt went through lung cancer.
It went to her brain.
Fast.
My mom, her twin, was sentenced with alzheimers. Her heart shit the bed. We were thankful.
My sister's lung cancer was diagnosed early, but was told that she had small squamous cell lung cancer. As the doctors said, it responds well to treatment, but it will come back, and when it does comes back, it will do so with a vengeance. He was right.
My dad was diagnosed with lung cancer in late 1993. Surgeons removed a lung and a lot of tissue around it. He was left with a smoke damaged lung and had to use oxygen and was always out of breath. He passed late December 1994. Log hard slog for him.
