Members with small cell lung cancer shared their individual journeys since diagnosis, with timelines ranging from 2020 to 2022, describing various treatment paths including chemotherapy, radiation, lobectomy, immunotherapy, and whole brain radiation for metastases. Several members found hope in exceeding their initial prognoses, with one member approaching two years after being given six to twelve months, while others navigated complications like strokes, brain metastases, and ongoing fatigue with faith and determination. A recurring theme was the deep importance of quality over quantity of life, maintaining a positive attitude and faith in God, and supporting one another through both victories and losses, including a heartfelt tribute to Mike who passed away after his battle with the disease.

Yes SCLC IN THE LUNG SEPT OF 2020 went to the brain taking chemo and radiation since but last week we decided on taking a break. GOD IS GOOD.

Update
This is Mikes son. Unfortunately he passed away on (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) from small cell/Metz to the brain. At least he is resting in peace.
