You have your radar on now to vigilant. I was diagnosed with bile duct and pancreas cancer, I am 57. Mayo care team ordered 6 months (8) treatments of folfuroniñx. Neuropathy is bad with it - they can decrease one chemical
Slightly if needed,
I had Whippel on 3/14 at Mayo. Surgery is toughest one to have and recover from. Your father is lucky one - only 25% qualify for surgery. My body doesn’t make tumor markers so we are flying blind with my situation. The team operated with clean margins. And got clean lymph nodes. Thank you for the miracles God. Now I heal, and then start chemo and live
my best life. Your dad should strengthen his upper body for going from chair to standing And up and down from bed and toilet. Legs need to be able to
Push too. Stay positive hopeful and Thank God every day.

The "miracle" is from the millions of hours of work and training of the medical professionals.
It is not likely a god would create and continue suffering caused by pancreatic cancer.
