This is great! My father died of pancreatic cancer earlier this year. They diagnosed him and he was dead in two months. I hope this will save many people from going through that.

100% yes. My mom died last month from pancreatic cancer and we got 140 days from diagnosis. Her father died from it 40 years prior. This gives me hope. Sorry for your loss. I know how hard it was.

Sounds like you have a high risk and should be checked for it regularly. I’m sorry for you loss!

I plan on getting checked, but surprisingly the DNA testing said it wasn't genetic. However they were both type 2 diabetics which I am going to watch out for...

My mom died 5 months ago, 6 weeks after diagnosis... Totally out of the blue. I hope you are doing well, sending you a hug.

Two months sounds a whole lot better than the 5 days of agony my cousin got. Sure never had time to organise anything either, and every doctor just said nope. Didn't even have a will at that point, and her partner barely got to see her because of of covid. Must be one of the worst variations.
