    What's the mortality for Stage Four Pancreatic Cancer? What are the odds he makes it through this?

    "The average life expectancy from the time of diagnosis is 3-6 months. A few people live past two years from DX and practically none make it to 5 years. There is no curative treatment for stage 3 or 4 pancreatic cancer, only what the doctors call palliative care to relieve symptoms and possibly extend the time the patient has left. People diagnosed with stage 1 or 2 cancer can survive with surgery to remove the cancerous portion of the organ."

    That's absolutely terrible. So there's nothing but death at the end of the road for him?

    Not at stage 4. My Dad was stage 3 when they diagnosed it and they gave him a 10% Chance to live past 3 years. He died 8 or 9 Months later. Every individual is different but at Omar's Stage the Cancer has already spread in different parts of his body.

    I bet we would find cure if money spent on war would go to cancer research.
