Hello Lou,
No my wife did not have a Whipple. Awhipple procedure I believe is done when the cancer tumor is located at the head of the pancreas. My wife surgery included a Roux-N-Y Procedure. hre cnacer tumor was located at the "Y" of the hepatic ducts just under and outside the liver...
If they told you there is a spot on the liver it sounds like the cancer is spreading....I am very sorry to hear that news.
But never give up...stay positive as possible.
I'm sorry I can not give you info regarding a whipple.
Take Care, Leonard from Alamo California
