My recommendation: You only live once. Find the best care possible.

My Dad had a life threatening condition several years ago and he was gradually failing to the point of not being able to walk and communicate...etc. He had been doctoring with a local doc, a good guy, but out of his league.

I finally became frustrated and talked to the doc and got a recommendation to Mayo's....you wouldn't even know he is sick now...he exercises everyday, is back on numerous corporate boards and enjoys a very active life at age 75, He has mysthenia gravis...mayo clinic had treatment programs that were far ahead of what we could obtain locally.

now he doctors esclusivel at Mayo's and the difference is astounding. Find an expert in the field of lung cancer and talk to him....I do know lung cancer it is a pretty tough nut to crack, tho. they use very aggressive therapy for it, he will need all your support.
