Life After

Something to consider. There are some folks who have had their pancreas removed and promised they would feel better & they didn't. Then they have a second and third surgery (same promise not kept) & they are FRUSTRATED and Pissed at the whole medical community & you need those people to help you remember that you are your own advocate & that there are ignorant doctors or doctors lacking in knowledge of the pancreas. Those same people are still sick, worn out & tired. They deserve some slack cut in the rope for them to grieve, bitch, vent, argue. This disease disables your filter occasionally and that is when the slack should be given. Until you lay on that table 10 plus hours you can't imagine the feelings, fears, loss, and anger that you deal with on a daily basis. We are all ticking time bombs and FORGIVENESS is the key!! I love my Cranky Pankies!
