Anyone chosen palliative care? What are the last months/weeks like?

Posted by rfherald @rfherald, Sep 28, 2023

I have duodenal cancer and have read about the difficult after effects of Whipple. I am 77, enjoyed life, and chose what appears to be a more pleasant conclusion. I have had a Gastroduodenostomy and will follow with chemo, but what are the last weeks/months really like?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Pancreatic Cancer Support Group.

Thank you for this discussion. I"m hoping we are a long way from making these decisions, but you never know what changes are in our near future.

Right. Nor do we know what options are available. I want to be prepared.
