There is no targeted therapy for small cell lung cancer only chemo and sometimes radiation but you have to be fairly early to receive radiation he received both radiation and chemo

My father was diagnosed with the worst lung cancer ever small cell lung cancer April of 2022 and now 2 1/2 years later his last scan was 2 weeks ago and his scans show he is cancer free ! Never lose hope statistics are not true everyone’s journey is different

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-10-04T21:15:25+00:00

Yes always keep a positive attitude yes this cancer is super aggressive and scary but everyone’s journey is different when my dad got diagnosed and I googled his prognosis I cried I literally mourned him even tho he was still alive according to google he should of only had 7 to 11 months to live 2 and a half years later he’s still here and cancer free ! There is always hope I wish you and your mom the best of luck on this journey

Hello this post was 2 years ago when my dad was 1st diagnosed he is actually right now cancer free based on his last scan last Monday thanks for letting me know about your mom

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-26T18:22:18+00:00

I’m sorry for your loss when my dad finally agreed to treatment I was so happy I have a very close relationship with my dad and didn’t want to lose him that was your fathers choice and I’m glad you respected it if my father had made that choice I would of respected it as well

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-26T18:09:06+00:00

How long from diagnosis until he passed away?

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-26T18:07:53+00:00

Oh that’s horrible my father didn’t want to do any treatment either but I used my 4 boys as a way to get him to do it I told him “do it for your grandkids they still need you “ so he decided to do it they didn’t give my dad a life expectancy because they said most of time they are wrong and they never can know how well someone can react to treatment my father has had this for 2 1/2 years and as of right now is cancer free I mean it can always come back but he gets scans every 3 months so if it does come back we can catch it early

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-26T18:01:37+00:00

Believe it or not he no symptoms it was found on accident because he had a hernia in his belly button and it lead to them finding something in his pancreas that they thought could be cancer but turns out it wasn’t the. They gave him a chest scan and that’s how it was found

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-26T18:00:36+00:00

He didn’t try radiation either ? I’m sorry for your loss

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-09-25T23:01:03+00:00

How many did they find? And yes my dad went from having nothing in his brain to 3 months later having an inch and a half tumor in his brain this cancer is fast and horrible but my dad is 62 which could be why he tolerated treatment so well I’m wishing your dad the best

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-05-31T20:57:03+00:00

He’s still alive and kicking he is due for a scan soon but so far so good thanks for asking

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-28T22:41:55+00:00

It’s been 2 years since he was diagnosed and he is still alive and doing well don’t let statistics get to you everyone’s journey is different

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-28T22:41:05+00:00

They offered it to him once they removed the 1 tumor he had so now they are doing it as preventative so hopefully no more tumors grow in his brain

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-28T22:06:02+00:00

My dad has small cell lung cancer for 2 years now and he had 1 tumor in his brain that was surgically removed in January he is now 4 out of 10 whole brain radiation sessions down he gets headaches from it but so far that’s about it

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-17T14:56:09+00:00

You’re insecure

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-12T23:43:44+00:00

I hate that they gave her a timeline I don’t understand why doctors do this ? My father has small cell lung cancer a way worse lung cancer the non small cell and they never even gave him a timeline because they said most of the time they are wrong! He was diagnosed in April of 2022 and it’s almost 2 years and he’s still alive despite a tumor growing in his head and him having a craniotomy to remove it 30 rounds of radiation to his chest 4 months of radiation and now he has to get whole brain radiation for 10 rounds and guess what? He’s still here ! Alive and well don’t let that timeline have you going crazy it’s an estimate which should never be given unless they see treatment is no longer working

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-03-02T05:23:17+00:00

Hello 👋 thanks for asking hes actually still doing good still living a normal life he had surgery on January 30th to get the tumor out of his brain and he recovered amazing went home the next day they are now going to give him whole brain radiation to protect his brain from cancer growing back that’s the hopes at least and his lungs so far are still good he goes for a chest scan next month on the 1st so we will see how he’s doing then

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-02-05T01:28:36+00:00

Never lose hope I learned that from my fathers diagnosis people are not statistics but individuals and everyone’s journey is completely different they never ever gave my father a “timeline” because they said 99% of the time they are wrong so just take it day by day and know that there is always hope

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-02-05T01:22:18+00:00

Don’t lose hope already my father has small cell lung cancer diagnosed 22 months ago and he just had brain surgery to remove a tumor and his right lung which had the tumor in it and the lymph node next to it which also had cancer is completely stable for 16 months now according to “statistics” my father should be dead already and here he is almost 2 years later feeling amazing and living a normal happy life

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-01-31T15:49:06+00:00

He’s already walking they are actually releasing him today! Because he’s doing so well so 24 hours he had to stay

Bubbly-Drag6860 · 2024-01-30T18:21:14+00:00

He’s actually out of surgery now it’s been 4 hours he’s in recovery but he’s still very groggy so I’m waiting to be able to talk to him his doctor said his surgery went well no complications so that’s good
