That is the best news ever. I had the same last March 15 and so far so good, I had the lower right lobe removed and am going for my second CT scan in a year to make sure all is still clear. I didn't have to have chemo or radiation. My tumor was the size of a soft ball and was contained only to the lobe. I'm so happy for you. Make sure you do all your follow ups ~ Linda
