Awful just awful. Why cant they find a cure for this dreaded disease ? I have not seen enough progress made with cancer in recent decades. It seems like the research has stalled. This is troublesome.

I'm very sorry, but there is no cure for pancreatic cancer. It is fatal and can start and finish in a few weeks, no more than about three months. I read Alex is in terrible pain behind the scenes but comes out like normal in spite of it when the cameras are rolling. God bless him, his family and friends.

@Reever early diagnosis for any cancer is the key- and there isn't much of anything for pancreatic cancer at this time.

My cousin has survived pancreatic cancer for 6 years.
Early detection was key, and she has undergone chemotherapy throughout the six years. Her oncologist says that she has survived beyond any other of his patients. The chemo has been tough on her, and she has encountered other complications connected to her surgery.
Her goal is to spend as much time as possible to watch her grandchildren grow.

Lung cancer is another one of those that doesn't have a good survival rate.

Alex Trebek is a special man. He is doing what he does so well to the end. How many would or could do what he has done? He has an inner strength that is quite remarkable.

@keithsmom65 I read that it is very rare that they can detect it early.I wish someone would give a list of signs. No one talks about the early signs of cancer of regular variety of cancer.It used to be listed all the time before.
