Okay, so bad news is my mom is not eligible for surgery. However, Dr. Truty said he has "great news" about my mom. He said she has responded beautifully to chemo, with her CA 19-9 numbers coming from 488 to 13 and her PET-MRI showing no cancer activity in her body. He said she falls under a small group of people who have responded well to treatment. He thinks radiation and chemo pills are the perfect next step and that my mom will be in remission after. He stated that my mom will have "years" ahead of her, which is pretty surprising to hear when it comes to pancreatic cancer. Not going to lie, I am/was upset and scared about no surgery, but I do have to remember it would have been a major surgery that will probably lead to complications and hinder quality of life. I am just glad Dr. Truty kept reiterating to us that it's amazing news - that gave me the much needed comfort.
