When is your lobectomy?

I have choose not to do chemo prior to lobectomy. Surgeon said that the mass is up against my rib and even if they do chemo to "hopefully" make it move away from the ribs, I may still wind up needing a open surgery rather then robotic which would of course be much easier to heal from.
