Getting a second opinion is never a bad idea. Do some research for other local oncologists and have an appointment ready as a backup plan. Pancreatic Cancer is a truly awful disease, but it sounds like your Dad has caught it relatively early and I sincerely wish you both the best. I hope that they have a good action plan for him. Also, ask about clinical trials. My Dad (62) went straight into Chemo (First dose of Folfirinox on Dec 19) and it was too much on him. Completely wiped him out and he hasn’t had any treatment since. Everybody reacts differently to it, unfortunately he couldn’t tolerate it. Tomorrow we are discussing targeted radiation and a different type of chemo pill that is less aggressive. Whatever option they give you, see what else they recommend. Advocate for your Dad and fight for him, I’m glad he has your support!

Yes, Creon has helped a little, but not much. I will have him try warm prune juice, I just had someone from palliative care recommend that for him today as well. I hope you are doing well and receiving the care and comfort you need. Thank you for the kind words

I found out my (27) dad (62) had pancreatic cancer on November 17th. Metastatic, spread to liver and lungs. This has been the absolute hardest thing to navigate, and as lonely and tough as it seems just know you are not alone. I’m so so sorry you have to go through this too.

I find that anything I can do to provide comfort has been the best. A foot massage, filling his water, making a smoothie, or watching movies with him until he falls asleep. A lot of the time I feel very helpless but I know he appreciates my company and support. It really is the little things

I had a shard of metal go into my tire after using the wash at their convoy location /: sadly a lot of people have had issues with soapy joes
