Good morning
Your uncle has advanced stage of lung cancer.
The cancer has had metastasis to other organs(it has spread to other organs in liver and trachea) this indicator of bad prognosis.
What can be done for now is mainly palliative care.
He will need to see oncologists and counselor for further management.
