Stage 4 pancreatic and it has started(maybe?/probably?) spread to the liver. He got the first dose of chemo today. No immediate side effects from the chemo but he is in a lot of pain and morphine isn't cutting it.

Going in for a nerve block on tuesday. That should hide all the pain for a few months as we see if the chemo is working to get him "well?" enough to get radiation treatments.

good chance 3/4 of that is only 1/2 correct but my brain is oatmeal right now.

On the up side, I have a really good feeling about the place he is at. My brother and I both talked to other patients that could not be happier with the care they are getting and there are people from everywhere getting care there.
