@berta929, that's quite the surgery having both the Whipple procedure and liver transplant at the same time. How long were you in the operating room? Are you now considered cancer free?

Hi @colleenyoung ,
The surgery was scheduled for 12 hours but they finished in under 5 hours. It went very smooth no complications, thank god. At this point I am considered cancer free. Mayo has been amazing from the beginning and continue to be, as I'm still under their care since my case was a little out of the norm they wanted to watch me until my 1 year follow-up.
