Subject: Stomach Cancer. Is this normal progression of illness?
Date: 04/24/2008

My son, diagnosed in Dec 07 with stomach cancer has been unable to eat the last 3 weeks.  Needless to say, he has lost lots of weight and looks emaciated.  He is now 133 lbs.  Down from 245.

He was hospitalized 2 days ago to be rehydrated.  They found a blockage near the duodenum.  They are proposing surgery to remove it. I am afraid he may not withstand surgery due to his weak state.

Can someone who has gone through this kind of cancer pls tell me what to expect.

Please keep my son and his family in your prayes.
