I had a friend whom had stomach cancer. He went through all the chemo treatments and was told he had about 6 months to live. He ended up going on some natural medicane treatments and the cancer went dormant and he is still alive 10+ years later.
I've read that chemo is an attempt to kill the cancer cells, but it's mostly a hope that the cancer dies before the rest of the body does. How terrible
