    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.
