Hi,

My Mom, who was diagnosed with squamous NSCLC in May of 2014, had lobectomy, chemo and radiation. Couple more tumors in same lung. We went to MD Anderson in January for second opinion. They felt she should do Opdivo. She had her 8th treatment yesterday. She had CT scan last week and yesterday we found out all tumors are shrinking! Praise God! We are so thankful for the great news! Praying for continued good news from Opdivo.

God Bless!!
