" Hi Mary, my name is Roni and I also found this site for me and my father, who was diagnosed with stomach cancer in July. He is 62. I would very much like to hear about your father's experiences throughout his treatment in order to help my dad get through his. Just a little background, my father has had a partial gastrectomy and is now going through chemotherapy and radiation. I have had huge struggles in getting him to eat enough. I worry every day about what I can be doing to help him keep positive and do the best thing for his health. Please tell me a little about what you guys have been going through. Hopefully we can compare our tactics. Talk to you soon. "

" Hi,I'm Tonia and I'm new here. My husband was just diagnosed with stomach cancer. He is 38yo and has never been sick in life. So this is a bit overwhelming for the both of us. We have 2 precious boys (ages 10 & 6). I'm really still trying to deal with my feelings. I really haven't been able to sleep at night. During the day, I'm fine because I can busy myself with being mom but at night with the house is still, I find myself anxious and restless. How do you as a caregiver take care of yourself as well as provide care for your loved one? "
