Yes, almost. Biopsy of the pancreas is adenocarcinoma - same as the rectal tumor. The liver could not be accessed through the stomach to obtain a needle biopsy although they do have ultrasound images of it.
Close enough to start chemotherapy.
This Wednesday I meet with the hematology doc to learn how screwed I am.
And Thursday they will install a port.
So. . .not long before the battle journey starts.

Suerte te deseo lo mejor no pierdas la fe que Dios estará allí,acompañándote todo saldrá bien.

@cloudybright, I can almost hear you rolling up your sleeves to take this on. Getting the port installed will make future treatments easier on your arms. Please keep us posted. Sending you peace and strength in whatever quantities you need.
