This is an snipit from a post on B&V.
Within the past couple of weeks I learned that I had a growth on my pancreas. Now the results of a biopsy show that it is malignant and has spread to the liver, although perhaps not extensively (more tests are required). On the face of it, this is bad news. The five-year survival rate for this type of cancer is only 3 percent; in fact, the one-year survival rate without major intervention is only 18 percent. There are also some very inspirational stories from those who have survived despite the long odds.
Bill, I hope you beat it.
Cheers
