Esophageal Cancer

[sheppie]

I just found out a very important person in my life has esopageal cancer as in 1 hour ago.
What stage it is at, has yet to be determined. I can tell you he has lost 30 lbs in 3 months, cannot eat much food or just vomits it up, is severly constipated and has wicked acid reflux.

What I am asking is almost impossible I realize, but does this sound like the earlier stages or the latter one?

We are reeling.........
