I don't think ANYONE can answer this kind of question. Over the years, (I am a 13 year lung cancer survivor and I run a Lung Cancer Survivor In Person Support Group) and I know MANY that have been told they have 3, 6, 9 months to live, and 2, 3, 5, 8, years later they are still here.

Just learn to live one day at a time and enjoy life to the fullest. It's really the best way to live.

Best wishes.
