Hi

 Our world was turned upside down 8 weeks ago when my father collapsed at home.  At first they thought it was stomach ulsers but upon closer examination they discovered a problem with his pancreatic ducts bleeding.  They removed all of his pancreas, spleen and duodenum.  When they took it all out they discovered that he had mucusey cells and tumors throughout his pancreas that have matastised.  They found it in one duct.  Two weeks later he then found a lump on his neck.  The cancer is a rare type I think it is called Mucinous Ductal Ectasia.  We have been given no real timeframe and they are looking to do radiation to the neck if it is just there.  I am sadly realistic about the outcome of this disease but are in search of the question how long, is it days, weeks, months or years.  They do believe it is a slow growing cancer and it has been in his body for 4-5 years but how close to the end is it??  My father is not really sick and seems to be getting better/recovering from the surgury

I just wanted to say stay strong and I will keep you and your family in my prayers.  I am not familiar with your situation but I'm sure you will receive excellent advice here.
