@colleenyoung Hi, Colleen. You are correct, no treatments on weekends.I have 2 treatments done and will continue on Monday. I will be meeting with the radiologist every Tuesday during treatment. Our son came over today and installed a streaming device on our TV. There are many free streaming services and we are thinking about getting Amazon Prime. We got our smoker out today. Our son brought leg of lamb, chicken breast, pork roast and we had pork loin. Going to be eating good for a few days. Church will be video streaming again this week. Only going out for groceries (I drive and stay in the car; my wife goes in to shop), doctor's appointments and to pick up meds.

Hi, my husband was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer Jan 2017, did chemo, had Whipple May 2017, followed by more chemo. Had been NED until Jan 2020 when we found out the cancer has returned. He is on chemo and radiation is being recommended. I would like to know others experiences with radiation and types of chemo. He is scheduled for a endoscopy tomorrow, partially to put in some “gold beads” as markers for the radiation. Has anyone else had this? With COVID I don’t want him to have the procedure if it’s not absolutely necessary.
