Gina was 38, a nurse, and in peak physical condition when she faced an unexpected diagnosis -- non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). She shares her story:
In January 2016, I had craniotomy surgery to remove the large tumor in my brain. That was relatively easy, but the radiation therapy that followed kicked my butt. I was so exhausted.
So far, so good. But late-stage NSCLC has a habit of coming back. Seven months later, the cancer had returned to my brain. I went on a different targeted therapy. That worked for about three years, but then the cancer reemerged around my heart and pancreas. This was last March. One week I was running and doing bootcamp classes, and the next week I couldn’t walk up the stairs. I was pretty sure I was going to die.
On Memorial Day of this year, I started to feel dizzy. I went for an MRI, which showed a few spots on my brain. My cancer is back. I don’t know what the plan is from here, because I’m out of targeted therapies.
