Whipple procedure in Indiana

I need recommendations for Whipple procedure in Northern Indiana area. My mother is 82 yrs old and has been told that she needs to have a 2cm tumor removed, procedure sounds terribly dangerous.

There are two NCI centers in indiana, and she would have to either do neoadjuvant treatment first soon (chemo and, or radiation) or have the whipple very soon from a surgeon and hospital that does A LOT of them.  I have met survivors in 80s and heard of some whipple patients as old as 90s.  It is a surgery that requires a lot of nutrition support and moving /walking after to heal, recover, but it is doable.  I had mine 2 1/2 yrs ago and lead a normal life.  The two NCI centers in Indiana are: Indiana University Melvin and Bren Simon Cancer Center in Indianapolis and Purdue University Center for Cancer Research in West Lafayette.
