Surviving Stomach Cancer

First discovered just a decade ago in a tribe native to New Zealand, this rare form of cancer has the potential to wipe out an entire family if caught too late. Now, cases of Hereditary Diffuse Gastric Cancer Syndrome (HDGC) are being discovered all over the world including here in the United States. CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton has the story of an entire family who underwent major surgery to prevent the disease and protect future generations.

Unfortunately, my mother's stomach wasn't removed completely and the cancer developed in the piece that was left and spread. The doctors gave her 3 months and she lived 3 years! A blessing and a curse.

The doctors told us my mother has stomach cancer and it has spread to the liver but there is a 5% chance he is wrong. I hope that he is wrong. Any info from anyone that knows about this stuff would be great. And thank you for the video.

Does age matter on this cancer?

My father died of this cancer two years ago on 24th May 2008. He was only 55. The chemos did nothing to stop the disease from spreading through his entire body. And about six months after diagnosing it, he was dead.

@VivaPks There is no effective screening for this cancer, which is why the full stomach needs to be removed. Once it is found, it is generally too late to treat. My cancer was located within the walls of the stomach, and was just a fluke really that it was found at all. Cheers.
