My aunt has renal cell cancer and it has spread to her lungs, kidney (the only one left after surgery), and st


omach. Does anyone have any idea how long she can live??? Also, what can we do to cheer her up, because she's becoming depressed?

My Dad had lung cancer we never left his side for 3 months we took him for rides in the country, fixed all his favorite dishes (even if he didnt eat them) we sat with him constantly watched a lot of ballgames and hunting tapes because that is what he like to do. we had the church choir come in and sing for him (several different churches did this for him it was very moving. the house was always full of people He never lost hope and He kept on smiling and making us laugh. He was very heroic I love that man with all my heart and miss him badly. Hang in there your aunt could live for a very long time.

Really the best person to ask is her oncologist. Everything depends on if she is trying to treat the cancer or not and the histology of the cells.
