she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer some time november 2006 and had whipples surgery january 2007, the day after i got married.

we approached her condition agressively, her going through chemotherapy and radiation at the same time. she responded well… adn so it seemed.

regular monthly check-ups, church, house… that was practically her routine. doctors said she’s showing good signs and seem to be responding to the treatments very well.

october 2007 she began to show signs of having her stomach getting big. and bigger as days pass by. and the feeling of her stomach being full all the time.

first week of november she was confined to have her stomach aspirated so that she’d feel more comfortable… atleast that was the we felt was the best option for her to take to make her feel comfortable… and so she stayed for a week, until such time she felt better. and did she feel better? yes she did, according to her… she was not bothered by the look of her big stomach anymore.

a couple of days after she was discharged from the hospital, her stomach began to grow again and so she decided to go back to the hospital, november 19 to be exact, she went back to the hospital hoping that she can have another aspiration… she never got out.
