I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer at 27, and was also told by several doctors that I was “too young for it to be cancer”, luckily my surgeon listened and I think he saved my life. It’s been 22 years for me, and I had a second diagnosis in 2019.

Advanced stomach cancer is one of the worst cancers in the world in terms of survival rates. A lot of the cell configuration mutations can be adenocarcinomas which some medical experts have compared to being similar to some types of pancreatic cancer. They are not your typical solid tumors but kind of a spray paint sticky mucus layer on your organs, and it loves to spread to the peritoneum area - these cells are very hard to fight off and to complicate things your immune system just doesn’t recognize these terrible fuckerx. Amber you are an unbelievable fighter and from the bottom of my heart I commend you for your determination and perseverance. Don’t give up girl….We are with you!!!! You will beat the shix out of cancer. You will!!!!!

My dads stage 4 stomach cancer Doctor dint give any hopes. Hea 68 years old. Just told lets give chemo and see. We dont have required finance . Cancer treatment is too expensive. And we dont have medicine like im states nor clinical trial. The medicine from other countries if we get itll be too expensive so much that we might have to sell our dear house that we struggled so much to build by saving a lot.

I've heard of people being healed while playing healing scripture or Psalms all night while they sleep. Reading the bible out loud healed my neck one night and made me feel much stronger physically so do it daily. Look up healing scripture online or try reading any of it out loud.
