I to, underwent a 12 hour whipple surgery about 7 months ago. I know from experience how difficult this surgery can be. I thank god that the grapefruit size tumor in my pancreas head was benign. I wish your wife and your family the best of luck and patience with dealing with this situation. The reason for my newly dx'd diabetes is a result of my whipple. What little pancreas tail I had left had been severly damaged by chronic pantreatitis and from the scar tissue that bulit up after the surgery.
There is a wonderful support group - forum for pancreatic cancer at John Hopkins web site. Here is the link - http://162.129.103.56/N/n.web?EP=N&URL=/MCGI/SEND1^WEBUTLTY(199,8)/1637031274
This is a wonderful forum for sufferers and family members of pancreatic cancer. I had many, many questions during my recovery and there was an abundant supply of people there willing to help.
