How was she diagnosed stage 4, yet the cancer was described as not having spread beyond her stomach????
Hi. I know that sounds crazy but was told that by a doctor in Las Vegas who did CT scan. But this is the kind of stuff I'm talking about, how you can't believe what just one doctor says. Those second and third opinions are a must. We left Vegas after that and went to California where my uncle is a doctor and he put us in touch with the right people. It was nothing but a miracle how the cancer stayed contained in the stomach for over a year. Thats about how long she complained about the symptons before the doctors in Las Vegas decided to do an endoscopy. Well, I guess it was tricky because she was pregnant too, and that's another long story. But the baby went full term and survived. So no matter what happens in the future, I know I was atleast blessed from God to have a son. Amen.
