Good Afternoon to patients,family and friends.I know that many of you remember Mary,our receptionist,for 27 years.Mary called me last weekend to share some sad news.I copied her words to make sure I did not put the wrong information out.So here it isI've been diagnosed with lung cancer (small cell carcinoma). I have 1 very large tumor that has wrapped around my pulmonary artery & pressing against my esophagus, with 3 smaller tumors all located in the left lung. So it's a little hard to breathe & talk.
I don't have a treatment plan until next week but I am confident that I WILL beat this. I'm a strong woman with my faith & attitude in a good place .
I have 110% support from my husband, Ruane Larkin , who has been taking charge & is my rock. My son, Torey Nanos , and family & friends.
So if you have time to sit down & look up to the skies & just say a extra prayer for me & my family as we start an unknown journey into the future Quite upsetting news.We are taking a collection of cards for Mary to help she and Ruane while they start this journey. If you would like to send a card to Mary,you can drop it off at the office,and Britney,Mary's daughter-in-law, will make sure they are given to her.We are all praying for her.She is in our hearts and minds.If you know of anyone who would like to send her a card,please feel free to share this information.Many blessings to you all!
