In 2024, Ali was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer — a devastating disease that often goes undetected until it has already reached an advanced stage. She was healthy, vibrant, and full of life, with few symptoms leading up to her diagnosis.
She faced the fight head-on, enduring six months of chemo, radiation, and major surgery to remove the tumor. But to her family’s heartbreak, the cancer had already spread. Just 10 months after her diagnosis, Ali passed away.
If early detection had been available, she might still be with us today.
We share her story to honor her strength, to raise awareness, and to fight for a future where pancreatic cancer is caught earlier — before it reaches an advanced stage. In Ali’s name, we believe in change, so that other families might be granted more time, more options, and more hope.
Every dollar counts. All proceeds go directly to PanCAN to fund life-saving research and provide vital support to families affected by this terrible disease.
We love you forever, Mom/Ali.
