Not so good/not so bad
I was diagnosed with stage 4 NSCLC in November 2010 and placed in Iressa in January 2011. By January 2012 my tumours had reduced by up to 60 percent. My scan in April this year showed that one of the tumours had grown from 8 to 13mm. The May Xray showed a fuzzy area at the base of my right lung

Back to Work
I wrote a little poem, to "celebrate" being well enough to go back to work following a double lung transplant to cure emphysema. I dedicate it to my wonderful wife Ali who got the whole family through a tough time. I sincerely hope that you all enjoy it and maybe take some hope and comfort from it.
