Very sad. A friend of mine died of pancreatic cancer several years back. It's usually found in the advanced stages & the prognosis is poor. Very brave man indeed.

I had hodgkins lymphoma myself,went through almost 16 months of chemo and radiation,made it,and I thought I had it bad.It really sucks that there is nothing that can be done for him anymore.

Thinking good thoughts for that brave person and his family...
