[quote=Anonymous]My sister was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer that had spread to other major organs. Apparently, small cell is harder to treat. Her oncologist was forthright. Without chemo, she would likely survive for 4 months. With chemo, 12 -15 months. She committed to chemo and died within 9 months. She never mentioned regrets, but she didn’t have a great quality of life during that time. I agree with the poster who mentioned taking notes. My sister’s oncologist also had a NP who could answer questions too. Hugs. It’s a lot of information.[/quote]
