Many have asked a lot of questions about my cancer. I’m going to address this is in my blog but I thought I would look up and provide a couple of resources that may be of use to some of you.

When we were first asking around to see who we should talk to, tis doctor’s name kept coming up, even at hospitals that she is not affiliated with. I have never regretted contacting her. She will stop at nothing to make sure one of her patients gets the care they need.

My Radiologist: Justin Mathew Rineer, MD – Radiation Oncology. Straight up honest and knowledgeable. Glad he’s on my team.

My Current condition:

Squamous-Cell Carcinoma of the Lung

Squamous-cell carcinoma (SCC) of the lung is a histologic type of non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). It is the second most prevalent type of lung cancer after lung adenocarcinoma and it originates in the bronchi. Its tumor cells are characterized by a squamous appearance, similar to the one observed in epidermal cells. Squamous-cell carcinoma of the lung is strongly associated with tobacco smoking, more than any other form of NSCLC.[1]
