Default My Mother-In-Law has Pancreatic Cancer, she was diagnosed early in?

October. My Family is Devastated bcuz one of her Sons died of this same Disease 2 yrs. ago. When he was Diagnosed with it, the Doctors couldn't do anything for him. well, now that his Mom had surgery they found out the tumor could not be removed so she has to resort to Chemo when she gets out of the Hospital. It is horrifying bcuz we found out there is a Gene that is inherited for this form of Cancer, and I wonder if Chemo is enough to help AT ALL? It used to be there was no hope for Pancreatic Cancer but what have read lately, there IS since new developments.

Does anyone know any facts on new treatments for this?
We don't want to lose my "Mom-In-Law".

Thanks for any suggestions!
