Not me, but my uncle. He was rushed into the ER on Wednesday after not feeling well for a few days, he was hardly able to talk or move. Immediately they found some type of infection in his blood requiring a blood transfusion. Or, four over the course of three days. And another test determined he had a mass in his pancreas.
Now is the waiting game for the test results to see if this is pancreatic cancer.
His daughter is my best friend, and he is my dad’s best bud. It is scary and waiting is the worst. I have been trying to keep it together but it has been hard.
Anyone have any experience with this?

Don`t worry till you hear what it is, nowadays they can cut tumors out and the person lives a normal life. Tony had a liver tumor removed and now its clear. He has lived well over what they told him he would with stage 4 ling cancer. Medicine today is amazing.

Pancreas is the worse organ to be infected by cancer. I know persons who have this has a very short time to live. They are the fastest to grow and difficult to cure by any contemporary medical treatments. I sure do hope that her disease is not that serious. Even though the initial prognosis looks otherwise. Pray hard that it is not true.
