Hi @catrinka58. Thank you for sharing. I will continue to update on my husband's progress. He started his first round of chemo on 10/5 and will have 8 infusions (every other week) along with a 46 hour pump he comes home with after each chemo visit. This leads us up to mid-January if he tolerates the chemo and no setbacks. At that time we determine whipple and then another 2 months of chemo or radiation then whipple (need to see the CA-19 lowered) Please keep me posted as to how you are doing. Sending positive thoughts and best wishes!

mjennison, thank you for your kind words and it appears myself and your husband are on the same therapy path. I start chemo on the 19th and will be sent home with a pump as well. This will be every other week for six months than evaluation for possible radiation or whipple surgery. I do hope that your husband continues on a positive path as now we have hope of being cured. Medical technology has progressed tremendously 🤗
