Steve’s Story

Site created on February 15, 2020


On February 11, Dad went into Urgent care with abdominal pain. A CT Scan was done and showed a spot on his liver and pancreas. He was then sent down to the U of M in Minneapolis for further testing. 2/12/20 he went in for an endoscopic procedure to obtain biopsies of these areas as well as placement of a stent in the common bile duct. 2/13/20 we received the diagnosis of Pancreatic cancer and are still awaiting additional results and staging. Tomorrow we have an appointment with Oncology to hopefully get additional results and treatment plan. This is going to be a long road ahead but Dad is tough and has a great support team. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers, we greatly appreciate your support and words of encouragement 🙏❤️
