Folks, A couple of weeks ago my brother Richard went to the Emergency Room with chest pains. It turns out that his ticker was just fine, but he had a 4 cm tumor on his pancreas. This past Tuesday the tumor was removed along with another one of his lymph glands. The pathological report showed the tumor to be malignant, and today he was told that the cancer is stage three.
While this is serious, it is by no means hopeless. What he has going for him is that it was found at an earlier stage than most pancreatic cancers. Once he heals from the Surgery, Richard will begin chemo and radiation treatment and we will see what happens. The raw truth is that only about 20% of pancreatic cancer patients survive past five years. Pleas keep my brother and his family in your prayers.
