Hi can someone tell me what to expect. My relative has been told today that his stomach cancer has not spread from his stomach so the surgeon said he needs to remove his whole stomach. He can’t get chemotherapy as he has poor kidney function so he needs to get the whole stomach removed. My relative is 63years old and is eating well and putting on weight. He also has a wee bit of learning difficulties but can understand what’s happening but is so very anxious and scared. Can somebody please help me reassure him everything will be ok. The surgeon told us he’s 60-65% sure he can cure him and remove all the cancer. But I thought you needed to have chemotherapy first??? Can somebody that has had this tell me what to expect
thankyou
