I have a classmate at MD Anderson for pancreatic cancer. The first round of chemo really beat him up. Round 2 comes this Thursday. Hoping for the best, but also knowing that it has a poor prognosis in most cases.

The chemo is horrible. It compounds—the first round is the easiest.

When my wife was going through it, the answer was: Calories. The key was to get as many calories as possible into her. They need the energy to make it through the rough days.

It’s a long haul, but people DO make it through. And…the treatments change and improve all the time.

Good luck to your friend.
