Sharon,

That was my "walk in park", we seem to use that term quite a bit on here. I had the surgery 5/6/04 and it was not bad at all. I was only in for 2 nights. Mine was video assisted and I ended up with 4 small incisions, one of which was for node biopsies. I may be looking at more invasive surgery for the other lung, but this one was easy. Oh, I too felt luck when they told me I could have surgery. Surgery, good news, go figure!

Good luck,
Glenn
