On May 13, 2011, our mother, Cindy, was diagnosed with stage 4 Non small cell lung cancer (adenocarcinoma). She has never smoked a day in her life. Since being diagnosed, as a self-employed and charitable family law attorney she continued to work hard for others in need. We sincerely thank you for your contribution, prayers, and support for our mother.

Something is going on, but we don't know yet

Well, after round 3 we thought all was going great because the tumors looked like they were shrinking on the ct scan comparison from before starting to then. Right now, she feels like there is fluid building back up in her lung. Not sure what this means exactly, but it doesn't feel like its a sign in the direction we thought we were heading. She goes in for round 4 on tuesday and will get her white blood count done. We have a doctors appointment after that to which we will probably do another scan and get x-rays to check the lung and tumors.
I just pray that the tumors are shrinking and that she will soon be "no evidence of disease" so that all we have to do is continue with the maintenance program and that she will be okay. Its all just very scary and hard to relate. I know she feels lonely and scared. Pray and keep your faith. God bless!
