Gastric cancer have a poor prognosis in general. If the cancer is completely removed with clear margins, there was no involvement of the serosa and had 3 or fewer lymph nodes affected survival at 5 years was 60%. In addition, if you are one of those survival rates at 5 years, 5%. Response rates for combination chemotherapy, 10-50% with a median survival of 5-11 months.
Your doctor is the only one who can tell the truth, I hope all goes well
