Hi,

I was diagnosed in Jan 2020 with borderline resectable adenocarcinoma at the age of 50. I did 7 rounds of Folfirinox, followed by chemo radiation, and then Whipple surgery in Aug of 2020. I had negative margins after surgery but 5 of 28 lymph nodes were positive for cancer. I had no adjuvant therapy. As of today, I remain cancer free. I have scans every 3 months with the next one coming up on Sep.20. Best wishes to you, your mother, and family.

Kevin

Hi! I’m so happy to hear that things are going good ❤️May I ask you how long it took you to feel better after the procedure? My dad just got it done a month ago and he is having a hard time dealing with the changes.
