Colon Cancer can Spread to the Pertoniteal lining of the Stomach

Mom is in the emergency room at the Clark Fork Valley hospital right now. She has horrible pain in her lower abdomen. They are running a lot of tests.

I don't want to play doctor (I wish the doctors would just try harder) but I found out (on the internet) that one of the places that colon cancer will spread to is the peritoneal lining of the stomach. Mom has every symptom linked to having cancer in that area- that was why she requested a CAT scan of her stomach in the first place.
