After experiencing gastrointestinal issues in 2022, it took a total of four visits to ERs and an urgent care before a CT scan revealed Sarah Bennett had a mass in her duodenum, near her pancreas. The mass later led to a diagnosis of a rare cancer, neuroendocrine. She did not have to undergo a Whipple procedure, but did have to take an oral form of chemotherapy. That preceded a successful surgical removal of the mass. Sarah achieved survivorship and said her health is very close to what it was before her diagnosis.
