Wife: Whipple surgery mid-December 2023, stage 2b.
Bile pump nearly right away and for an extended time.
TPN for two months.
Then J-tube/G-tube for 6 1/2 months.
Lots of weight lost, weight somewhat stable now, but wife is skin and bones.
Still gets hot pains in lower left moving upward to the middle. They provoke vomiting, no nausea involved.
Her third cancer, after ovarian 21 years ago, breast 11 years ago.

Thanks, Mark. Looking at that photo makes me want to ask if you are in Oregon.
