    pamkir: Same exact situation here. If you hear any messages of hope, please pass on. I'll do the same. Take care of yourself so you can take care of your mom. AS

    Hello, mine was in the body and was also around an artery, they did a resection of 2/3 rds. of my pancreas, took my sleen, and took a artery from my leg and removed on from the pancreas to the liver. That was in July, I'm still going through chemo, but I'm still here!!
