Ruth Bader Ginsburg and an actress named Charlotte Rae from Facts of Life beat pancreatic cancer but theirs was caught very early.
Patrick Swayze lasted 20 months
Benjamin Orr from The Cars lasted only 6 months after being diagnosed but was doing live performances up to a week before his death
Steve Jobs and Aretha Franklin both lasted around 8 years, but they had neuroendocrine tumors which is different than true pancreatic cancer. Jobs could have lived a lot longer if he had been more aggressive in his treatments.
Jobs was a ****ing idiot. He had the ONE form of pancreatic cancer that was actually treatable and instead of getting regular treatment his dumb ass decided to go for alternative medicine. Probably would've still be around today otherwise.

My grandfather lasted about 15 months. He looked healthy then all of a sudden he deteriorated so fast inside of two weeks that the battle was sadly lost..
