My dad has just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer

Hi, my dad has just been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Which scares the life out of me. I am hoping we have caught it at the early stages, however we will not know until the biopsies are back. Dad is hopefully having a whipples operation. This is major surgery to the pancreas, gallbladder, duodenum. I was just writing on here to see if any one else has experimenced pancreatic cancer in their family and if so how did they manage after the operation. 

 

 

  • Hi, I am really sorry to hear about your dad and I hope everything goes well with his biopsy results. We are currently going through something similar with my dad and have a meeting with a specialist tomorrow. Is there any chance I could private message you to ask you a few questions about what happened at your dads meeting? tomorrow feels like too far away and I'd like some idea of what happens on the day. Don't worry if you'd rather not I will understand.
