I smoked almost as long as you. I scared myself into quitting, almost a year ago. I knew something was wrong.

I have stage 1B lung cancer. It has been arrested by stereotactic radiation. My scans show that the tumor is not growing. It may be dead tissue.

I feel the way you do. If I can quit anyone can quit. Good luck to you!
