u should have the person that has the problem get to their dr as soon as possible.

No person docotor or otherwise can give you a definite answer on this. A lot depends on medicines the person has available to them and the person's will to live.

Remember God works Miracles EVERYDAY!

That's between them and their creator
While it would be great if we could pinpoint such things, even with scans showing the extent of the spread we can not pin point how long someone has.
Spend as much time with them as you can while they are still around for as long as they are around

Do you have an oncologist (cancer specialist)? Once metastisized, most cancers are very advanced. Could be 6 mos. to 1 year. On the good side, I had an aunt who lived 18 years with metastisized colon, lung, liver cancers. Check out site below. Very good info. Check out your doctor(s) and hospital(s) to see who is the best in oncology.

sorry, but 95% chance of less than two years.

My aunt had lung cancer from smoking and then shortly thereafter the doctors foung metas in the brain. Lots of chemo and the best available drugs at the time (4 years ago). She lived then approx 1 1/2 years with this. A very depressing downhill battle. As mentioned above: 95% within 2 years.

No one really knows. My husband had lung cancer that spread and when we found out he was already stage 4, he was told in the hospital to make plans to die, another doctor gave him 6 months, and then we got a really good doctor and my husband lived two years. I think it all has to do with your will to live and your support group and what avenues you are taking for your treatment. I think everyday is a miracle when someone wakes up and has this terrible cancer.
God bless

I heard a story about someone with cancer having excellent luck with Reiki. I know a Reiki master who often volunteers at the local cancer center. it might be worth checking out.
