Default I want to talk to someone familar with stomach cancer.?

My dad has stage 4 stomach cancer. He is at the point that his food is not digesting and we think his colon is no longer working. He is still up and about but with lots of pain. More details later. I want to know that now that he is at this point, how much time does he have left? I want a true honest answer-straight foward. I know I get get a actual date but i just want truth.

I'm not a doctor, so I can't really answerr the question. I wanted you to know that you should be focusing on the time left, make sure you've all said what you have wanted and enjoy each other. I know its a cliche but its true. Don't let cancer change the way you live, or the way you die...stay true to your father, and keep strong for him.

I don't think anyone can tell you certain but his doctor. My friends dad lived three weeks. My step-dad lived 12 days after this point. BUT, don't panic because everyone is different and unless a doctor here can answer I don't think any of us here can tell you anything but our experiences. God bless you, your family and your dad.
