Her Doctor's have told her that with surgery she might see the end of 2006, without it, she won't last the rest of the year. I know that she needs the surgery and possible treatments afterwards. Yet, I urge her to seek another opinion first. I have mentioned Cancer Treatment Centers of America to her, with hopes that she will talk to them before making any decision. I have let her know that I will be there for her every step of the way. Thanks for listening to me.

He opted for alternative treatment and that doctor (who also uses conventional treatment) said he really thought the Poly-MVA was going to work for him. From what I have read stomach cancer is really bad. My advice is see several oncologists and get as much advice as possible. Good luck. Cressa Sat, 03 Sep 2005 00:00:00 GMT
