A few days ago, I received a touching email message from a lady by the name of Molly Nesbitt. Molly wrote to me because of the numerous times I have written about pancreatic cancer in this blog. For over four years I have tried to express how my father suffered and then died from pancreatic cancer, but I learned from Molly that she has a better way with words when it comes to writing about the toll pancreatic cancer takes on a family unit than I do. After receiving Molly's email, I wrote back to her and asked if it was OK for me to include her words in an upcoming blog post and fortunately for all of us she said yes. Molly Nesbitt's full email message is posted below and I hope that you find as much comfort as I did in reading about her experiences in dealing with a family member who is diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. I have titled this blog post "Do My Eyes Look Yellow To You" because Molly hopes to write a book someday about this subject with that title. After reading your email Molly, you certainly should consider writing that book as a guide for future generations. Sadly, everyday - somewhere in the world another family is told that one of their loved ones is dying from pancreatic cancer.
