Hi, A Relative Of Mine Has A Genetic Stomach Cancer

Hi, a relative of mine has a genetic stomach cancer and they fitted him with a stent as he is inoperable and constantly was vomitting, losing too much and couldn't keep food down. He has had the stent in for 10 days and he is still not able to keep food down and vomits after awhile. they took some blockage out of the stent and looked at it on the X-ray and say it is in the right place and expanded and yet my relative can't still keep food down is malnourished and losing weight. They gave him an enema and still problems and going to X-ray the bowels tomorrow. What could possibly be the problem. My relative is going to die soon if he doesn't get and food in him. He can't even tolerate water. He is 49. I appreciate and info and what to ask the doctor or look for next or where else to go for better care and treatment. My relative has been in hospital for 10 days now with no food in him at all. I appreciate you help with any ideas, thoughts or info. Thank you!
