I am 66 years old and my wife is 65. She has had pancreatic cancer and underwent a 10 hour operation losing her Pancreas and Spleen. She is now type1 diabetic and insulin dependent. Her cancer has re emerged at the same site around the Superior Mesentry Artery which provides blood to the small bowel and therefore makes surgery not viable. She is now undergoing a second round of chemotherapy and her condition is classed as manageable but not curable. Has anyone had a similar condition?
