In 2019, at age 69, Rosalie was living an active, fulfilling life when a routine ache led to a life-changing diagnosis: pancreatic cancer. Told she had only months to live, she turned to Fox Chase Cancer Center, where a multidisciplinary team led by surgical oncologist Sanjay S. Reddy, MD, and medical oncologist Michael J.
