I think I confused people. Sorry.

Unfortunately, it's not my mother who got good news, it was my T.

T had cancer twice before and went for her scan today and she is okay and healthy. Whew.

My mother's lung cancer came back. She only has one lung because the other one was removed.

They did radiation and it shrunk it by 50%, but two other tumors have grown and she has numerous nodules. They can't treat her with radiation again because they can't risk damaging any of her healthy cells plus there are too many.

We are not sure about chemo yet, but I doubt that's an option for the same reason. We're waiting to meet with the oncologist.
