88. I apologize for not recalling if this is a primary lung cancer or metastasis.

I have a half-dozen friends and relatives with last stage cancer, at the moment.

My cousin is having some success at Mayo for treatment of her newly diagnosed lung cancer. Her second opinion facility. I always recommend getting a second opinion at a cancer center which specializes in your specific cancer. A second set of eyes is almost always helpful.

I'm sorry for your less than ideal news. I wish you luck.
