Bradley Cooke grateful for treatment at UTSW

Bradley Cooke was given six months to live after receiving a diagnosis of pancreatic cancer from a local ER. "I needed a second opinion, and that is how we got to UT Southwestern," Bradley says. After radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery, Bradley is now enjoying his life again with his family on their farm. A second opinion saved his life.
