Bone scan result

Unfortunately they found cancer in my bones - in the spine and in the right ribs. I guess the backache was partly from cancer. I was really sad about it but after talking to my healer last night, I'm more optimistic and hopeful that I can still recover from this.
I had a shoulder pain this weekend and was taking painkiller, but I went to the acupuncture yesterday and had a session with my healer. I just woke up and noticed the pain is almost gone even though I didn't take any medicine before I went to bed. I'm really grateful.
So, I will see my main oncologist on Wed to talk about the next treatment (they told me it will be chemo). I hope we don't have to start it until after the holidays.
Have a nice day everyone!

I'm so sorry to hear that. Is it a different type of cancer or has the lung cancer some how infect the bones?
You know, I'm so proud of you. You are dealing with your situation with such positive and sweet attitude that I'm floored. Don't lose hope and just keep on moving forward.

Mizuho I an so sorry. I was hoping your aches and pains were just you doing too much. I hate that your going to have to go through chemo again. We'll do anything you need, even if it's just sitting by you and holding your hand.
Hang in there.

mizuho-
from what I have read, when cancer spreads to the bones in lung cancer patients- it is very treatable. So do not be discouraged.
Ask God for wisdom & grace- for healing, He is near to those who call on Him.
THinking & praying for you all!
