Wednesday 9th July, 2014

Today we visited an Oncologist.

He confirmed that our Johnny Pye has Pancreatic cancer, an aggressive form of cancer,  unfortunately no surgery can help due to the tumor wrapping itself around his blood vessels.  The tumor is quite large.  The Cancer has spread to his liver and lungs therefore radiology is not an option. Chemo may-be our only option.

The Whipple Procedure is not possible, as the liver is affected and again the tumor is too near his blood vessels.

We may start Chemo next Wednesday - a five hour stint every two weeks.  Please let me know if you would like to keep him company, obviously two at a time as to not to overwhelm him.

Thank you for all your calls and text messages today sending our Johnny Pye your warmth and love.

Dad,
I love you and miss you. I would like to be there for you and Michelle. I am coming out to visit soon and will stay for an extended time. I can always fly out from the word go. I am here for you and can speak on the phone, email, or Skype anytime. Enjoy some sunshine. Speak to you soon.
Love Lee xoxo

Michelle,

P.S. My first post disappeared when I tried to publish so it might be worth warning others to copy their message to a Word doc before trying to send.
