Hi
I don't have any experience with stomach cancer but I noticed that your post hasn't had any responses.
While you're waiting for responses, if you type 'radiotherapy' into the group's search bar you'll find lots of previous posts on this topic. You could have a read through those and respond to any of the more recent ones if you think the poster could help.
I've also found this information for you about radiotherapy for stomach cancer that Macmillan have produced.
When you have a minute, it would be great if you could pop something about your dad's journey so far into your profile as it really helps others when answering or looking for someone with a similar diagnosis. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. To do this click on your username and then select 'Profile'. You can amend it at any time and if you're not sure what to write you can take a look at mine by clicking on my username.
