Pancreatic Cancer Survivor Receives Spirit of Hope Award-1/2

[Rain44maker]

I was there the night Laurie gave her speech. I have Stage 3, and am an 8 year survivor. It has been quite a ride. You just dance with life when you can. A positive attitude will not give you more years, but it will make the time you have better My surgery was 10 and half hrs long. I spent 17 days in the hospital. Everyone is different. Don't feel bad if your story is different than Laurie's. I went from 185 lbs to 119lbs. I battle depression and pain still, but I dance when I can. I love life..
