WOW!

We need to ho from hopeless to hopegul

What a sweet gentleman! I hope we have update on him.....wishing him good health.

My mum diagnosed with adenocarcinoma. Surgeon said the whole pancreas will be removed. We don’t have enough money to do surgery. But I have questions what is quality of life if whole pancreas is removed?Do people have more complications after surgery? Thanks

My husband was diagnosed last of pancreatic cancer Oct.2023, did chemo for six months. After one month of surgery he feels pain and the ct scan show it metastasized to his lungs and liver. He will do treatment again next month. Please pray for him

God please help this woman get better

WOW!! Just want to say first that I'm Italian too, lol. I was diagnosed May 2023. I did 6 months of chemo and 5 weeks of radiation. I was in "remission" for three months but sick from upper GI bleeds from radiation. And needed blood transfusions. now back to chemo, which is making me have fevers and body aches and 5 to 6 days at the time. Then I feel better and then right back to chemo. My question is, how do you stay in faith, I'm having a real hard time with that, and I feel so guilty. God bless you and keep going strong.

I am so thankful for the project purple, educating, support, everyone sharing their journey. Thank you for your stories. My husband was also diagnosed in March. Prayers for Jaclyn and everyone diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and other cancers. We definitely need to continue bring awareness on this silent disease. Prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Just know that you’re not alone. I also diagnosed with the same disease. Praying for you and your family! You can do this! ❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏

Prayers for you and your family 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻🤗

Praying for you

Jodie's story is exactly what happened to a close friend of mine. Everything went fast once diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer that spread to her liver. Her gallbladder was removed via an emergency procedure.She thought she had food poison. However, the reality hit once she awoke from her procedure.She was in ICU for 4 days. The doctor dropped a bomb on her. She now prefers quality of life versus quantity. She'll be stopping the chemotherapy treatments.

Even early stage in this disease is tough it seems. This was a good interview. Sorry to see that she passed away in May of this year.

Lovely episode for sure but I can’t help feeling life and clout make it an unfair fight beyond cancer being unfair in general. Most people won’t have the fortune of this kind of care in our country or others. 💜🥴

Beautiful story. I lost my father AND sister to this disease. My sister also had breast cancer. She was always so healthy she said when I get hit it’s going to be big.

1 gram of cannabis oil a day for 60 days is the answer to cancer. Only the lucky ones listen to me. Please be one of the lucky ones. Rest in peace, Sir

Dumbfounded at what an amazing person Bradley was! RIP WARRIOR!😢❤

Truly appreciate the podcast, and everyone’s journey. My husband is newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. We were so overwhelmed until I started watching podcast. We are educating ourselves and being encouraged by your podcast. Thank you so very much for sharing.

Here’s my story. I’m 82 now and was 78 when I had my Whipple surgery. We retired to Florida at 60 and several years later I had appendicitis, which required its removal. In the process the scan showed a lump in my pancreas. I then underwent a biopsy, nothing, benign. I did this for 10 years, getting it checked each year. At that time my surgeon said nothings happened so you no longer have to check it. In the 14 th year, I was having my sugar go up some. I went back to him and he did another biopsy. This time it grabbed several cancer cells. Stage 1 At this point I moved my care to Mayo. I felt too old to do this horrendous surgery, but they convinced me I was a young 78, and would do well. I really did very well, not one bit of pain, I was glued, not stitched. After 5-6 days I came home and continued to do well. The cancer tumor was encased in a benign tumor and he was able to do a slightly easier version of Whipple. The tumor was in the head right next to the opening and he took 40% of the pancreas plus other parts. I did get CDefficile and have that to today, and have been on Vancomycin since. That’s another story. All tests to this date have shown no problem with the Pancreas, and although I’ve gotten breast cancer, it appears to be non related. At this moment I’m going through Keytruda treatments, #4 is tomorrow. I would say that in my case that it would have been hidden and really difficult to find. Sincerely, Elaine Russell

Thank you so much for the beautiful remembrance of my son, Bradley. He was an amazing human being who I will forever cherish and love. Mitakuye Oyasin

NET needs to be treated differently from other cancers. It sounds like it was treated with chemo and radiation first. Depending on where in the pancreas it is, surgery probably should have thought of, too. I had my PNET diagnosis 2020 in the middle of one of the lockdowns. And the prognosis was at least to 2030, if not beyond. Only surgery, and scar tissue herniations as complication. Screenings show No Evidence of Disease. October is the next scan and Gastroscopy. I hope to get 25 years NED like one of the guys I met at NET onco rehab. Living the best way possible is all we can aspire to.

Arrived to the track this morning to walk my 3 miles. This popped up along with rain 🌧️ here in the Charlotte area. Sad morning 🌄 for us all. I liked this young guy in his earlier interview here. To his family and friends you have my condolences.

So sad that he wasn't able to be cured. PNET is usually more manageable. I feel for him. What a pleasant, happy man.

I have it also. I'm on my second hill, pretty steep on the next bump in the road. Best of luck to you. God bless us all.

Love you grandpa ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Omg I feel so bad for you ❤

This is my uncle and he's fucking badass!! Always has been! Keep fighting tio! You will beat this! I love you!

So cool to see dad telling his story so far. He’s our hero ❤ Thanks for giving him a platform to do so Project Purple, your organization is amazing!

I have breast cancer. I have asked my drs , have they seen more since Covid. All have said yes

My dear friend Charlie you will pull through this, my family and I keep you in our prayers,. You will be fine, p.s this is rosales. Thank you for sharing that.

Thank you Project Purple for giving voice to my father’s journey and message of strength! I hope others find strength and joy in hearing his words. Love to all you facing the same challenges!

Dear Charlie - thank you for sharing your story. It was very moving and impactful for me. A lot has happened over the last 2 months for my husband and I. We’re 43 years old, about to celebrate our 14 yr wedding anniversary and simply feel like we’re thriving. However, we were handed the news that’s forever changed our lives. Through various tests, scans, and biopsies, we’ve discovered that Jon, the love of my life has pancreatic cancer, which has potentially metastasized to his lungs. We are 3 chemo sessions in as of today and hope to move towards surgery in a few months. These past weeks have been among the most devastating and frightening of my life as we come to terms with this reality. While we are trying to remain hopeful, we are also acutely aware of the seriousness of the situation. The positivity you portrayed resonated with me - In light of everything that’s been happening , I decided to surprise Jon this past weekend by flying in his siblings and the wedding party to a beautiful resort in Palm Springs. We renewed our vows in an amazing and heartfelt ceremony, marking nearly 14 years of marriage. I strongly believe in the power of positivity and your story is epic tale of love, strength and hope.

I really loved this episode. So moving . Thank you for sharing your story, Charlie

Great. It is a cruel disease. My husband died at 61 yrs old.

This was excellent, thank you. Gives one hope for the future. Also note that we learn from research "failures" mentioned by Dino, as well as successes. It's all good.

Well done Emily

I know this feeling it was so hard to watch my mom decline before she died I was with her everyday I miss my mom

This is a good news story if I ever heard one. Thank you so much for sharing. I'm thinking that the protocol for Folfirinox has changed however or drug concentration is different than in 2012 as the standard I've been told is 12 sessions over 6 months. My radiation oncologist said they are happy if someone gets through 4 sessions and 6 is even better. Very few complete 12. It becomes too toxic for the liver and you can lose your mobility from the neuropathy.

Dan thanks for sharing you gives much hope. I could relate to all you were and are feeling I'm NED and I still struggle with emotions of the battle wishing you well

Thanks for sharing your story Kimberly Love ya my friend 💕💕💕
