Hi.I am very sorry that your aunt was diagnosed with Stage IV Cancer stomach with spread to the lungs.Her life expectancy can't be accurately predicted as it depends on her response to Chemotherapy,as it is the only option left.Please ask her to take natural foods to boost her Immune system.All the best.
