There are no good treatments for pancreatic cancer currently available and the average life span after diagnosis is 6 months to 1 year, with less than 5% of those diagnosed still alive after 5 years. Tell her to do what she thinks is best, but when the time comes, just make sure she's someplace quiet and comfortable.

I can find NO cases of a 19 yr old female with pancreatic cancer. If by some miracle, she has this, it would not cause her to throw up blood. Basically the same answer I gave you before.
