1st of all, any one promising a guranteed treatment for any disease is not being truthful. It is impossible to predict how different humans are going to react to different treatment. That being said there is very little that can be done for your relative other than making them as comfortable as possible. Pancreatic cancer in its earliest stages is a terrible disease and is even worse when it has progressed. I am not sure how old the person is but forgoing chemo and enjoying the time they have left is a legitimate option.

I'm afraid it's too late for your relative. When cancer gets to stage 4, that's not good. My mom died of lung cancer 4 years ago and she always said in the end that if she had it to do over, she would not have done chemo...it robbed her of a quality last few months. Sure, it prolonged her life, but that's it. She wasn't living during that time, just existing mainly. She was too sick to do anything. It sounds like your relative has accepted reality that they are dying and prefers to life the remainder of their life without being so sick. Let Hospice come in and help make them comfortable. They were wonderful with my mom.

I don't know of any. Check with the Cancer Society where you are about alternative treatments that they are aware of. Pancreatic cancer is usually found late and does not respond to chemo as well as some others.

My dear your relative is badlucky. Cancer of endocrine glands is a sad thing and nobody can survive. You can cut many other organs and throw away but not these glands. Only God can save him. You advise your relative to start Ram Nam Japa immediately. He should do it without interruption. He/she can sleep as much as he/she needs. This will conserve the Vital Energy of body and can prolong death.
Ask the patient to sit in morning sun rays. This way Vital Energy can increase. If you can come to us for SOHAM treatment to increase Vital Energy it will be yet helpful.

Your relative is going to die. He or she needs to listen to his or her doctors and take the chemo. Even WITH the chemo the chances or slim. Without it they drop to practically nothing. By the time he or she is sick enough to be willing to change his or her mind, it will be long past too late.
