My husband has been diagnosed with stomach cancer which has spread to his liver. We have a date to start chemo but we are obviously anxious about the 'what ifs'! We have been told that he cannot have surgery to remove tumour in stomach. We have been informed that the chemo treatment is not curative but to keep the cancer at bay and quiet. Does this mean the chemotherapy is known as palliative chemo?
Is there anyone else who has had a similar diagnosist to my husband and can share their experience?
