      Thanks for the well wishes Terra.

      Yes, I've considered the possibility of going the same route as "1 lunger".  My onco was against it but has concurred that it is still a possibility if all else fails and a surgeon will do it.  Being that this hilar tumor is still active and tries to cause me grief every so often I may have to go that route.

      All my best,

      Chris
