My mom has non-small cell lung cancer - and is in stage 3.
My sister and mom sounded hopeful- but of course frightened.

My mom starts radiation on Wed.- 5 days a week for 5 weeks.
After, she starts chemotherapy on August 5th- once a week- 3 hour sessions for 9 weeks.
After this treatment- they will check on her status.

She will only be considered cancer free if there are no signs of cancer for 3 consecutive years.

I believe she will make it to becoming cancer-free, as she has strength and much love inside her, and around her.
We will take it one day at a time.
