Australian-first pancreatic cancer resource for patients
Patients with pancreatic cancer have joined forces with cancer care researchers to develop an Australian-first online hub to support patients and families.
Participant Graham Wells, 56, a patient with pancreatic cancer from Melbourne, has been involved with the PanSupport website, which recently launched following a two-year project.
Mr Wells’ cancer journey started 12 years ago with brain tumours that later metastasised to his pancreas and liver and next month will undergo a pancreatectomy.
“I have found that one of the best resources is talking to people with similar conditions through support networks and social media,” he says.
