Docfag here. From what I understand RBG is being treated at Sloan Kettering for two malignant nodules in the lung. No other cancer was found. The media is making this sound reassuring, but the fact is, this is dismal. These are likely not primary lung cancers. Two nodules TYPICALLY doesn't happen. More likely, she has an unknown primary with mets to the lung. By definition, this would be stage IV in most cancers. In 2009 she was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer. This is probably what it is. In 1999, colon cancer. Also a possibility, unless she had a total colectomy, in which case less likely. Bottom line. She's a goner. I give her 6 mo. to a year. Sorry Ruth, but you deserve it.
