in Stomach Cancer #1

My wife has stage 4 stomach cancer in April 2015 and has had 4 rounds of EOX, but the Epirubicin was ceased after 1 round as she could not handle it, our oncologist has always maintained that there is no option for surgury, the cancer has spread to the peritoneum, She had a CT scan last week and the tumour has not grown or shrunk, and there is no evidence of spread anywhere else.

I would love to hear from anyone in a similar situation to see if there are alternative treatments and or surgury that may benefit her, we are able to travel anywhere in the world should it be available elswhere 

We are in Brisbane Australia and are being looked after by the Pricess Alexandria Hospital.

Thanks

Bob
