Excellent news!!! So what is it?

Well see, at this point it's nothing. It's just that when he had that nasty
bout of bronchitis in February they did an x-ray which showed an
indeterminate spot in his lung. So they scheduled him for a CAT scan which
showed more indeterminate spots, so then they scheduled him for a PET scan
which was also inconclusive. Then they sent him to the oncologist. No
cancer, but if he doesn't quit smoking he could wind up with emphesema.

Thank goodness! I wish your brother good luck with quitting
smoking--not an easy thing to do by any account. Hopefully the scare
he just got will motivate him. But VERY glad to know it's not cancer
for now. =o)

That's great news, Jill. Purrs he will continue to be cancer-free and
be able to quit smoking (if he really, really wants to!).
