Terribly sad news

My husband's niece in Arkansas called yesterday to tell us she just found out she has Pancreatic cancer.
She's 56 and has always seemed like a daughter to us. We're in shock.
I know that is usually a fatal disease because it's seldom discovered early.
Most symptoms can be attributed to other less serious conditions. But Donna went for a colonoscopy recently and that's how it was found after more tests and labs.
The doctor said she's probably had the cancer for less than two years. That scared us until I found out some people have it for many years before it's diagnosed.
So we're praying this horrible cancer was found early and that she has a chance to survive it.
If you are a believer in Almighty God, please pray for her. She loves her Lord and she's such a caring wonderful person.
She's been through a lot of dreadful experiences in her lifetime (I won't go into details), but it's a testament to her character and faith in God that she's the woman she is.
Thank you for your prayers and concern.

We're trusting God to take care of her. My husband just lost a cousin last week who was closer to him than his own brothers. This niece has always thought of my husband more as a father than uncle, so it's hard. She's like our second daughter.

@porwest I'm glad that many cancers that were incurable just a few years ago are now cured at times. But it's a horrible disease.

@1creekgirl We are, of course, making some progress. But not nearly where we need to be yet, and still many deaths are a result of cancer.

I don't know what to say really.
So sad for your husband's neice.
Let's hope that it was found early enough.
It's not a condition I know anything about.
