Journal entry by Pat Costello

Hello to Friends and Family,

Friday I received the results of my test and they only treatment available for me right now are two chemo's that I will  start by infusion  They will not be a cure but will hopefully slow down the spread and give me some more time. I do not have a mutation anymore, therefore they aren't able to target with other methods.  Same way with studies. My type of lung cancer is so unique that there would not be enough people to form a study.  Still feel very fortunate that I feel good and able to manage, breathe and caring on. I continue to be in good spirits since I stay in wishful thinking and denial. Friends and family provide good distractions so still have  lots of Joy in my life. Thanks to all of you for your support, comments and good wishes. I love you all!

Love,

Pat
