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!

There is a really good site called pancreatic.org it was founded by a brother who lost his brother to this disease. It's a great site and really upbeat with lots of new information and updates on this type of cancer. I really hope your mother in law will be okay. Cancer is scary, I'm fighting breast cancer right now and it's tough, but the support I get through breast cancer .org is fantastic so check out this site it will help the whole family. God bless and prayers going your way.
