There is no cure for pancreatic cancer. Less than 9% of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer will not live past 5 years. Amy Phillips was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in late June of 2020. It was discovered when she went to the doctor because her skin had started to change a yellowish color, also known as jaundice. This is where the doctors discovered a tumor had blocked the bile duct, not allowing the bile to leave her body.
Having no family history of pancreatic cancer, Amy has been researching this illness and learned of a new-age medicine. This process is called precision medicine. This is a gene testing to see if someone has precursors of diseases that can predict if you are susceptible allowing immediate treatment if caught in the early stages of cancer.
While there is no cure for pancreatic cancer, Amy's strength, family support, and strong faith keep her in hopes for a cure.
This is Amy's Story of Hope!
