Another “guess” is that it might be bladder or urinary cancer. But it has been stated that they found it VERY early!
I’ve had several comp clients who are bladder/urinary cancer survivors 7-12 years after treatment-they are employed and doing fine-that is survivable. My employer and best friend survived a malignant brain tumor for almost 5 years after treatment, but the effects of chemo caught up and took him out in less than 5 weeks. Pancreatic cancer is not survivable in the long term, though-and usually pretty fast.
