As Jerry Seinfeld said “Hellooooooooo”. Welcome to These are My Scars. In a very long and arduous decision, I have closed my previous site and blog and decided to begin anew here. If you would like to read previous posts, you can always view them at http://thesearemyscarsorg.tumblr.com at least until I familiarize myself on how to archive here.

My goal with this blog is to not only share in some of my personal experiences, but to serve as a resource for others who have been diagnosed with lung cancer. I have always thought that being “in the know” was important, but even more so when you are trying to advocate for yourself and your loved ones. There is so much information out there, but it can be daunting for a patient to find it or even understand it, which is where I want to fill the gap.

As I type, I am sitting in the airport lounge getting ready to head to the Mecca of oncology meetings ASCO, where I hope to fill my brain with lots of useful information that I can share with you. Stay tuned and please forgive our appearance while we build the blog.
