Thank you for sharing that. And I am sorry to hear about the reoccurence. Did your husband also have a round of chemo post surgery? It is interesting that it was recommended to have chemo before surgery. In my case, that was not discussed, the decision was to go to surgery quickly. They did surgery two weeks after the initial incidental finding of the mass in the pancreatic tail.

No chemo or treatment after surgery just close surveillance. Mike was healthy and ready for surgery right away but they did not recommend it. We went to Mayo clinic they recommended the same thing, although I think they would have done surgery after 4 months of chemo not 6 months.
