Topic context

Understanding stomach cancer

Stomach cancer, also called gastric cancer, is often treated with surgery that removes part or all of the stomach. Afterward people can eat only small amounts at a time and need to eat more often, and some need a feeding tube for a while or vitamin supplements.

Why it helps

How peer support helps with stomach cancer

Peer support can help with stomach cancer because meals are how people gather, and eating differently can leave you on the outside. A group gives you connection that does not depend on food.

Inside the room
