In Oct. of 05 my husband was diagnosed with brain cancer, which had spread from a tumor in his lung. He is 74. They gave us a time frame of 3-6mos. & leaning to the 3. In otherwords prepare for the worst. Because of the short time & his age they said Chemo would only make him sick & weaken him. Radiation to the brain was done & when necessary they would rad. the lung. Well 13 mos. later he shows little deteriation. The last xrays this week showed the lung tumor has not progressed, since Apr. & very little. While we are very grateful even the Dr. is amased. The initial swelling did some brain damage. Short term memory thing. But he is still active outside every day. We didn't think last yr. we would have him for Xmas, now another is just around the corner.

if you have cancer of the throat and they remove your voice box and the cancer has spread to your lymph node for sure (it has) and they do radiation and the doctor says the chances for survival is good. if they don't take it out then you have six months to live, does he saying your survival is good mean you for sure have six months, or you have atleast years left?

i'm going to be turning 16 at the end of this month, but after my shower today i noticed that my left breast was a slight shade darker than my right and also that my left nipple was also inverted (pulled in). is this a part of development or is it breast cancer? please help, i honestly don't know what to do!!
i also have a phobia of vegetables (i honestly do) and i havent eaten ANY vegetables in my life, so is it also a reaction to that? please answer, i am so scared and i want to figure this out before going to my parents becaue i don't know how im going to explain this to them. i don't want to worry them or anything and also i really hope that i don't have any cancer because i also don't know how my family is going to deal with this financially.
the strange thing is that my breast doesn't hurt but previously in my life, at random moments, it seemed as though my whole left side of my chested hurted as if my heart was in pain but it wasn't serious it just felt like it.

I have a lump or something on the side of my left breast, like where an underwire part is of a bra. Breast Caner has been in my family twice that i know of and they have both died of it. The thought of me having it scares me because of this. My mom is taking me to the doctor but i am too afriad of the results to be honest.

Is there any way a lump feels? Is it totally round or kind of un even?
