his is incredibly sad news. My Dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer 10 years ago in May 2009. At the time we thought he was considered "lucky", because the spot on his pancreas was in an operable location, which afforded him the opportunity to have what is called the Whipple procedure. Many pancreatic cancer patients are not so lucky.
They opened him up for surgery, and realized the cancer had already spread to his liver. They closed him back up, and there wasn't much else they could do. They tried chemo, but he was so weak already having recovered from a failed surgery, he couldn't handle it. He passed away in December of 2009. I miss him every day. Pancreatic cancer is a nasty, nasty disease. I wouldn't wish it on my own worst enemy. Prayers to Bob Gibson and everyone else fighting it.
