[|Human|] my husband had a tumor at the junction of his stomach and oesophagus which he had removed 5 years ago with surgery and chemo before and after the operation. He has recently been diagnosed with secondary bone cancer in his spine and hips and received palliative chemo which he has been taken off because the cancer is still growing. Doctors will not tell us how long he has left. Is this type of cancer fast growing? My husband said he is not ready to put his finances in order I am worried sick.
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.  He has cancer near stomach, and it is spread to the bone.  It becomes stage 4 cancer.  Surgery will not helpful. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy is the only treatment of choice.  It is only palliative treatment. It will not cure the disease. Despite treatment prognosis remains poor. Life expectancy is not good. Sorry to say but it is fact. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
