Program Titles

- Cancer Survivor, Six-Time Tour de France Champion
Lance Armstrong, did you have any idea that you were as serious a case as it turned out to be? No idea…I just thought that…well I thought: “Oh my God I’m gonna die!” and I didn’t even know how bad it was…then my neighbor who is a urologist came over and told me that this cancer had a really high cure rate and yada-yada-ya…but I still didn’t know it was that bad in my lungs…I didn’t know anything about AFP levels, HCG levels (blood tests) or anything about what was in my brain…I didn’t know anything, and I still was scared!
Had I known all that I probably would’ve been petrified…it kind of worked out better that I got the bad news gradually…it would’ve been really rough for them to have said you’ve got cancer here, here, here and here, your levels are off the board, and your chances are less than 50%…I would’ve had a really hard time handling that.
But at the same time it was also bad because it was a 3 to 4 week process of every week something else coming up…I did my first cycle (of chemo) here locally…in the interim we said let’s send the protocol out to MD Anderson and Indiana University to make sure they’re doing the right thing, and the MD Anderson people got the ball rolling with the brain scan–and spots were there.
