@kakalena Thank you for this information. Brought me much comfort seeing the similarities with my husband's journey. I am blessed to have found this support group. Though it's my husband dealing. He's a quiet man so isn't one to reach out for support. He has me he says ❤️ I did share your words with him & he seemed more hopeful. He has Pre Op scheduled 3/30. See if he's able to tolerate what's ahead. He's a strong man. Im pleased he has put some weight back on. Feel it's important. Just concerned about what's ahead. Preying for your continued healing. Every days a blessing. 🙏

@casey1959 Here is the link to the Dana Farber second opinion program: https://www.dana-farber.org/appointments-second-opinions/second-opinion-program I do not believe they do second surgical opinions but we were happy with the opinion we got from one their medical oncologists. My wife got her second surgical opinion from Dr. Truty at Mayo Clinic Rochester. He is one of the top pancreatic surgeons in the world and is known for doing surgeries with vascular involvement. He is completely frank in his assessment and expected side effects.
