Short Bio

I am a 71 yr. old grandmother diagnosed with advanced metastatic lung cancer in Jan. 2018.  Treated successfully with Keytruda and Carboplatin until late July.  Almost all cancer cells decreased so stopped chemo.  Started coughing and getting short of breath while walking but Dr. didn’t do anything until October when a pulmonologist took another look at my scans and diagnosed PF in both lungs that had literally blossomed since June.  I had been exposed to acrylic chemicals for 10 years in my 40s and to a severe black mold infection in my 60s.
