mrajat,
Another part of your discussion I wanted to respond to is the “grim cure rates”. Pancreatic cancer is difficult to cure; I won’t try and sugarcoat that; however the statistics you are seeing are averages and very nonspecific to age, mutations, a positive attitude, your physical health, etc. I’m not even listing cormobities as I have them and I’m still doing fine in stage 4 now. You could better.
