#3 ...Dingy Harry he may be, but I wouldn't wish a death by pancreatic cancer on anybody. He don't have long.

#6 I have 2 friends who died from pancreatic cancer and one who survived. Survival is rare.

#7 Pancreatic. Buh bye!

Not necessarily. If caught early (i.e. hasn't spread to other tissues yet) survival rates are much better today. But it is a severe surgery w/ removal of parts or all of the pancreas, stomach, gall bladder, and upper small intestines and then replumbing it all.

"They caught it early. The doctors believe it went well, and he is expected to make a full recovery,"

#9 IIRC, Ruth Bader Ginsberg had pancreatic cancer but they also caught it early in her case.

#10 Pancreatic cancer, as it progresses is one of the most painful of the cancers.

#13 I have known of older men who because of their advanced age have declined treatment. I think Harry wants to linger longer. All the men I was aware of having this have all died. One man quit smoking then two weeks later after quitting and treatment died.

#14 Pancreatic cancer is a brutal and horribly painful way to die. I hate Harry Reid and everything he stood for, but not so much as to wish this sort of death on him.

He better start praying for God's mercy for all the things he's done, or this will just be a small sip of what awaits him in hell.
