Hello everyone.
I just wanted to let you all know I was diagnosed with stomach cancer 2 days ago. I have been having a terrible time swallowing
food for just over a month now. I had a scope put down my throat only to discover I have a 1.5 long heap as the doc called it.
So when I swallow food it irritates that heap and sometimes I can't keep anything down. I was told that the stomach cancer I have
is VERY treatable. I won't know more until later next week until I see my doc as to what path I take from here. I have been told I
need surgery first, radiation and then chemo. See what happens at my next appointment for sure. I am going to be 55 in 2 months.
Yes, I probably am young to many of you on here, perhaps old to some of you, or in your age range also. I guess you never know what
is in store for yourself. My wife is a 3 year breast cancer free lady as of now. Now I am in her shoes as far as the cancer journey
begins for me. I will try to let everyone know my next step for prognosis. For now, I am just asking for your thoughts and prayers
please. I am leaving this in God's hands now. Thank you for listening. Kow Farmer Kurt
