I have been stage IV for 6 years and understand your feelings. I give thanks for my good fortune but it's also in my head that I'm just once scan away from starting all over (though with much better treatment options). While I don't want to leave the planet early, I take some comfort knowing that since I was first diagnosed I've been able to walk both of my daughters down the aisle and now have grandsons. So if I'm run over by a bus tomorrow, it's still been a pretty good run.

I had a lobe resection done eight years ago. Zero post surgical problems. No travel restrictions, though I didn't actually fly for serveral months. I have no feeling of hollowness in the chest. All in all, not a difficult experience, especially since I've not had a recurrance in that lung. I had a smaller resection in the other lung about two months after the first surgery. No recurrance there, either.
