In the paper this AM, I read that she didn't miss a day on the bench when she was fighting colon cancer. That is amazing in and of itself.
Pancreatic cancer is a cruel, vicious disease. One of my good friends, her dad was diagnosed with it in May and was gone by Independence Day. I think people forget how brutal it is--we see Patrick Swayze and Steve Jobs deal with it fairly well, and they really are rare examples.
