Received from Tim and Vicki Dyck:
On Tuesday morning we had a follow-up appointment with Tim's surgeon. He stated that despite the longer and more complex than expected surgery, he felt all went well. He stated that the tumor was larger in size than we thought, measuring approximately 4.2 x 4.2 x 3.1 cm. The margins they took were clear of cancer but 5 of 28 lymph nodes were cancerous. The cancer is diagnosed as stage 3.
Wednesday morning we met with the oncologist who confirmed stage 3 pancreatic cancer. Chemo is scheduled to start in 4-6 weeks time to allow for increased strength and recovery from surgery. The chemo schedule is every 2 weeks for 6 months. Prep for chemo includes the insertion of a portacath, blood work and another CT scan.
We appreciate your prayers and support as we continue this difficult journey.
