Diagnosed With Stage 4 Gastric Lymphoma. History Of Gastrointestinal Basidiobolomycosis. Prognosis?

My brother just came from the hospital. He called and read to me from his AVSAVS that he has Stage IV Gastric Lymphoma. How many stages are there and he has a Hx of GIB, my mind isn't working as well as I'd like, what is that GIB? Can he live long with this prognosis or do I need to start thinking on funeral arrangements.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Entire prognosis of disease is depends upon the histopathological report, if biopsy taken, more over the other organ should be examined for metastatic process instead of staging, certain stage or even last stage can halt naturally and the natural remission may be started, be a very much optimistic instead of thinking in negative way, every thing will be alright, have good day
