Got some depressing news today.....

Found out my Mother has stage 4 pancreatic cancer and it has spread to her liver. It's inoperable but non-aggressive so they say she may have a few years left.

Not something you wanted to find out on Thanksgiving.......

Cancer sucks man. My MIL has had it twice and though she was successfully treated both times the toll it took on her body has made things difficult for her health. Thoughts and prayers for you and your family.

Thanks y'all. I just lost my Father last December to Prostate Cancer. Don't know how much longer my Mother has left but I will make it count.

I'm very sorry.

My thoughts and prayers are with your Mom, you, and your entire family.

I hope that the pain associated with the cancer is minimal at most.

Hang in there my brother. Tell your mother from one cancer patient to another that while it's very hard, it can be beaten. This from a Renal Cell Carcinoma stage 4 patient, diagnosed 2/23/2015.

There is hope.
What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
