Hi Louann,
My mother was diagnosed with stomach cancer 2 years ago. She is now 56. I understand what you mean. She had her whole stomach removed and they did biopsies on her esophogus and found microscopic cancer cells. she went through chemotherapy and we thought she was cancer free. She did blood tests, cat scans, petscans, biopsies every 3 months. It never showed any cancer. She had her gall bladder removed last week and they found cancer cells back where her reconnection was done (esophogus and intestines). Her oncologist says there are clinical trials she could go to out of town. She's not giving up. Let me know how you are doing? Mirat
