It's a tough cancer to even beat for 5 yrs. There's been some great strides in lung cancer treatment though.
My dad had it 24 years ago and it was 7 months from diagnosis to his death.
My best advice - get that person to a large teaching hospital for treatment in a major city in the US. They have access to medical equipment such as specialized radiation machines & trial studies of chemo that most small hospitals don't have.
Do your homework on the facility & oncologist. Think Sloan Kettering, MD Anderson, Mayo Clinic, UCLA...
Good luck to you and the person diagnosed.
