No one beats pancreatic cancer.
I have read that she’s doing very little. Her clerks are writing the decisions and she basically signs off on them. I don’t know this for a fact but it certainly seems believable to me
No one beats pancreatic cancer.

My dad sure didn’t. It took him in 3 months.
I think she had colon cancer too. In fact, that might be how they found her pancreatic cancer.
Well if no one beats pancreatic cancer, the obvious question then is why announce she had pancreatic cancer in any case? They supposedly caught it in time somehow is my understanding, I don’t know how.

I just lost a close friend to pancreatic cancer. My understanding is that there is a form of PC that has a reasonable survival rate, but that form is much less common. For the most common forms, the survival rate is essentially zero.
Although pancreatic cancer is often detected at the later stages when symptoms occur, it still can be detected before that by chance like via CT scan. Usually, if caught when in later stages, there is only a 2% chance survival in 5 years. The chances of survival do go up quite a bit if caught like at stage zero (superficial) to say 24%, its still quite dismal. Why? Because these cells a quite robust and even if you resected the cancer cells at the beginning, there is still a very high chance it will return. Once it makes its reoccurrence it mutates fast to where they can easily get into the blood stream.
If she is a pancreatic cancer survivor it is due to her getting platinum medical care as a member of the Supreme Court. Given the commierats notion to use hyperbole she could have had a non-cancerous growth but to show she was “super” human they invented a theory that she survived one of the deadliest cancers, i.e. pancreatic cancer. It is possible she caught it early enough and survived, but....
RBG had a 1 cm diameter malignant tumor in her pancreas surgically removed in February 2009. Thats nine and a half years ago, shes beaten the odds so far.
