Hello!

My diagnosis came about last August. I had some strange things going on bodily and went to my doc to see what was going on and we started with a blood work up on a Friday and on Monday I was moved along to Savannah Memorial Hospital where two more days of testing occurred with the end game being dealing with stage 3 pancreatic cancer. My medical team did a few more procedures in the following couple of weeks then said they recommend a full removal of my pancreas and a half a dozen other organs to go along with it for good measure. My wife and I agreed as we really liked and trusted our surgeon, Dr Russell Kirks.

I’m a 70 yo, non smoking otherwise healthy male. The adjustments we’ve made since the surgery have gone ok. Had a ct scan yesterday and the results as posted this morning showed no progression of the disease anywhere. I’m feeling very blessed.

Savannah Memorial is where I get my CT scans & where the Anderson Cancer Center is located. Great oncologists there 🙂
