      I am so sorry. I was treated for breast cancer in 2017 and 18 but I think it has spread to my stomach. I have had issues since the beginning, but I was "fat" so losing weight wasn't considered a problem. I will know in a week or so, but I'm pretty sure it has spread.

    The gross negligence is astounding and unacceptable. Doctors get away with murder, no wonder many of them are so despicably arrogant

  • @maryaustinrealestatellc3528

    Keeping you and your family in my prayers. I hope you are sucessful in getting the information about the burn pits out so that something can be done to change the way it's handled. I had no idea that was even happening as I'm sure many don't. It will definilty become a talking point for me with others to help bring up awareness of what is happening and look into how else I can get the word out.

    So sorry to hear of all the disgusting neglect Jay had from Military. Jay sounds so bitter and angry , kept saying the word YAY with great sarcasm . 😳😳😳😳I dont blame him at all. From 2cm tumor to 20 cm ! in such a short time. ! Doctors can be so cruel , and even un my experience they never own up to serious mistakes that are life changing to patients. . Sorry to hear he passed away a year later.....Senfing much love and strength to his family and friends. Bless you all. 💚💚💚💚

    Hello my friend. Thank you for your story. I have been sick for the past several months. I have pain daily in my stomach and am being treated for h pylori bacteria which is a main cause for gastric cancer. I am a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ. I invite you to know Him. 🙏😊

    Jay -
    I am so sorry to hear this and I send you my empathy and my energy to you in the hope that you won’t feel alone. I came to watch this video because I had a similar story in 2015. I had meckel diverticulum and I also had that tube to suck the food out of my stomach. Three years later, I am still afraid because I don’t trust American gp’s. I hope you know that your love for lie will be rewarded with something much better.

    Hi Jay, tomorrow I am going to get full gastrectomy. It will be a challenge but nothing compared to your story. I keep going back to your story because there is so much neglect from your doctors and truly hope your story reaches others and become aware of incompetency in the medical field. I hope you can sue those people for the sake of your family. I wish you well.

      Unfortunately, due to something called the Feres Doctrine, which prevents Soldiers from suing the Army, I cannot pursue legal action. My wife has other venues to pursue, however- it's complicated. I hope your gastrectomy went smoothly!

    I learned I possibly had cdh1 gene when I was on a facebook call with my 33 cousins . I went to my gp and she sent me for genetic testing. I was positive. I then decided that I might be among the 20% who would not get stomach cancer. So they scanned me every 6 months. In July 2021 I was diagnosed with stomach cancer. In Sept 2021 my stomach was removed. I get scanned every 6 months and am cancer free so far.

    I am just starting the journey. Over the years I have worked with toxic substances through welding and brazing at work. The thing is, that so many people get stomach cancer that have never been exposed to anything toxic. Maybe it was cooking with Teflon that got too hot, aluminum, or a thousand other things. Why were not the lungs effected first. So the bottom line is nobody knows what causes it. Trying to find the villain that caused it is probably a futile endeavor that leaves us feeling like the victim of something that we can point to.
    I had an endoscopy done at the beginning of the year They said there was signs of irritation in the stomach but could not determine the cause. So about 8 months later I am going in for another endoscopy in 4 days to see if it has become cancerous. I found this video by looking for info about it.
    As odd as it is I talked with another guy tonight who said he was in constant fear of dying from something. I told him we are all going to die from something, and fear was a way to victimize ourselves before that happens. I wish us both the very best quality of life before we maybe meet on the other side.

      I think the medical world in incapable of diagnosing early as they are only able to cure what is really really obvious .... curative care instead of preventive or early stages of ailments that can become dangerous and life threatening and I think they don’t care 🤷🏻‍♀️

    My daughter was living in Mexico, she went to many Dr's, but they all said she was fine. All they did was give her antibiotics for H. Pylori and Prilosec, this went on for over 2 years, then she started getting weirder and weirder symptoms, and the Dr's gave her the same meds. About a month ago she started having bleeding in her stomach, she thought it was a bleeding ulcer, and just kept taking the meds, and didnt go to the hospital, and she really should have. 3 days later, she died, of stomach cancer, and maybe metasticised in other organs, she was 44 yrs old, and my heart is broken. I begged her to come home to the US and get checked here, she refused, she didnt think it was serious, just acid reflux and a stomach ulcer, it would come and go, until about the last 3 months. My daughter had a very high tolerance for pain, and that is why she didnt feel the pain very much until 4 days before she died. By then, it was far too late, even tho we didnt know it. I miss my baby. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭The funny(not funny) thing is, I worried she would get Covid and die, because she didnt get the vaccine, she got Covid, at least twice, and that didnt do anything, she was fine, until March 10th, I still cant believe shes gone. 😭😭😭😭😭😭

    Vaud a form of National Healthcare and so many think that is what the U.S. should have. I have seen so many cancer stories in countries that have National Healthcare and people were tired of waiting so long to see specialists or the long waits for CT, ultrasounds or MRI’s and had to go to private healthcare where they were immediately taken care of
