Hi,
My brother just underwent total gestrectomy about 3 weeks ago. Below are the surgeon's advice:
a. Prayer
b. Diet - eat raw vegetables like carrots, cucumber, brocolli, salads - Be a vegetarian - cook your vegetables Chinese style - eat soy bean products like tofu - abstain from caffeine, tea and refined sugar. Take natural sugar instead.
c. Eat in small amounts at least 6 - 8 times a day
d. Meditation - use your mind to control the cancer cells
d. Take up breathing exercises
e. Brisk walking 45 minutes - 1 hour a day

for some fantastic vegetarian recipes.
Lastly, remember this. Our body is one of God's marvellous creation. Treat the stomach as an organ to store food, that's all. Without the stomach our body can still function. It just takes some time. You have to fight and please do not give up. May God bless all of you.
