For me, it was very exhausting. They took out 3/4 of my pancreas and my spleen and left the head of the pancreas. Only all my cancer is gone. Just need to be treated with chemo and go from there and trust the Lord. He’s faithful I will tell you two weeks out. I’d develop an abscess in my pancreas. This was excruciating pain I was septic it lasted about six days. Praise the Lord. The antibiotics kicked in God‘s faithful I pray yours Will be too
