Ted was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer just six days before he passed away. I was with him when he learned the diagnosis and we were both blindsided. Ted never left the hospital and was moved to hospice care 3 days after diagnosis where he peacefully passed surrounded by family.
Pancreatic cancer has the highest mortality rate of all major cancers. It is currently the 3rd leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States after lung and colon.
In honor of Ted, I’m supporting PanCAN’s vision to create a world in which all patients with pancreatic cancer will thrive.
Every dollar you give funds life-changing programs and services for patients and their families. Because of you, patients and families receive essential services, resources, information, and support when they are urgently seeking help and hope. They need you now more than ever.
On behalf of Ted’s family, we are grateful for your generous donation.
