Hello Friends and Family

Hi all,

If you are on this blog, then you already are aware that Cysts have been found on my mom's pancreas. We are still seeing specialists in this area, and do not have a clear diagnosis or prognosis as of yet. So far they have called the levels from the Cysts "pre-cancerous", which means there is some malignancy, but it is also in an earlier stage of cancer. The latest is that my mom is being scheduled to have a specialist/surgeon review her case for possible surgery on the pancreas. If you would like more detailed explanation of what is out there on this, I have found some good info at http://www.medicinenet.com/pancreatic_cancer/article.htm. This blog is something I really wanted to start for my mom so she can keep you all updated more easily on a central area of communication. So I am keeping this first blog fairly general so my mom can fill in the rest. Just let me say that I know she really appreciates all your thoughts and prayers while this is all sorted out. So feel free to forward this to anyone you want, and stay tuned for more detailed updates. Also feel free to enter the site and use it for any questions or comments. Thanks for all your love and support!

Love, Marc
