IPMN 2 cm mass head of pancreas caught EARLY.......

Greetings, all --
@victoriadukes Our family is in a similar situation (incidental finding, etc), so I will be following this conversation closely. My husband is scheduled for surgery with Dr. Stauffer on 10/26. I guess my biggest question (at the moment) is what, if anything can we do to prepare ahead of time? Like should we be ordering bandages or wound care products? Once he is released from the hospital, will he be able to sit on a toilet without assistance/booster seat thing (we learned this lesson the hard way after one of our kids had ACL surgery)? I could go on, but I will refrain for now -- I am so grateful for any information anyone has to share. Thank you, all!!

Just to let you know, praying right now as your husband is having surgery today with my surgeon (Nov 7) Dr. Stauffer. Please keep us updated as much as you can. Be encouraged that your husband is in the BEST hands possible....this surgeon is more than awesome and has performed vast Whipple procedures. He loves his patients and strives for excellence in every single way. {{{hugs}}} and positive thoughts and prayers to you as you support your love during his journey. It is your journey as well. Be good to yourself and be sure to get plenty of rest as well.
