mechellewinchester profile image

I was.diagnosed with lung cancer 11/12/2015 I'm 48 years old. It has really been a rough road for  me and family as for anyone. All I do it seems is go to doctor I have been through 48 radiation treatment and 4 rounds of chemotherapy treatment that was rough I have faith in god he would bring me and my  girls through this and he did I went to Dr last week and the tumor is still there but it is not growing and the cells are dead I go back in 3 months for another ct scan you never know what you will hear but I keep praying everyday. I have faith and love in my heart he will bring us through this I know there is a God and he is beside me every min of everyday. Anyone that is going through this or any kind of sickness  just pray and have faith!!!

I agree with you totally ,I was diagnosed in Jan 2016 , had 5 treatments of sbrt on lower right lobe, will know more in July with another ct scan. When first diagnosed I was in shock ,bitter and very angry. Had it not been for my strong belief in God, I don't know what I would have done.. I have turned my destiny over to him, with that said ,I have an inner peace that I never had before. Everyone is different , what works for me is prayer and trying not to dwell on things I can't change good luck wardth

Knowing the Lord as my personal Savior has given me the strength to face every day.  I have stage 3b lung cancer and I go for my next CT scan on May 25th.  I have been and will continue to put my faith in the great healer, Jesus Christ.  

God bless you and your family on this journey.

The scans showed that the cancer is in remission. I go back for my next tests on August 25th. I'm still trusting the Lord because He knows what's best and can handle whatever happens to me. Thank you for asking.

I have found that if I think about having cancer, I worry. I honestly don't allow myself to think about or dwell on it. I honestly have given the burden to the Lord and He is doing a great job! I stay busy and thoroughly enjoy my family and my life.
