Debbie, Our heart goes out to you. My husband also has NSCLC, and they have found
a spot on his pelvis that may or may not be malignant. He is receiving a form of
taxol and carboplatin, and now the doctor is talking about radiation also. Please
get a second opinion, and listen to the people who are going to respond to you
on this forum. Please do not give up. If it hadn't been for the people on this
forum, I would have been totally without any hope for my husband. The doctors
have gone to school and studied medicine for many years but they don't truly know
you or what God has intended for you. Good luck. Joan
