Prayers sent. My Dad had an unsuccessful whipple by John Jones here in Little Rock. He walked into the patient waiting room 2 hours into an 8 hour operation and told us that he had only done a Roux-en-y procedure, palliative due to the fact that Dad’s PDAC had spread.
I’m very sorry to read that. When Bridget was being presented with her options, they stressed the likelihood of not surviving the surgery. They said without it, she would have 6 months; with it, she had a 1-in-4 chance of surviving and, if she did, no guarantees as to how long she’d live after that.
