My grandma was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer...she was living alone in NJ, but we got her to SC so we can take care of her.  She has no pain at all, but the doctors believe she is in the final stages.   She also had very poor circulation in her legs and can't walk, so we got a hospital bed and wheelchair through hospice. 


Has anyone had experience with pancreatic cancer?   Does anyone have any tips or advice as far as caring for her while she's stuck in bed?   Changing her is a bit hard, but think we're getting the hang of it.  


thanks
