I met my Surgeon on Tuesday along with my wife, we spoke about the procedure.

He stated before he removes a third of my lung containing the tumers, he wanted to try something.

He had a controlled frozen pathogen in the operating room, op took about 5 hours.

He removed two segments which contained the tumers and they were tested there and then while I was still under, they were benine NON CANCEROUS.

I have dodged a bullet here and I'm now doing well in recovery, my tubes-pipes and drips were removed todsy, they did a VATS operation.

Will take a few weeks but thank God they were no cancer.
