I am no over a million three nhundred thousand steps since my Pancreatic Cancer surgery last October. Since January 1st, 2025 I have walked one million two hundred thousand steps. I am walking much more since it is a lot cooler, down in the 90?s now. Fall is here in Arizona. 2017 was last time I walked over a million steps. So I am hoping with my Heart fixed, my Pancreas & Spleen gone I will get healthier and stronger to keep walking. Praying for 2025 to be a very good year.

I walked my 2 miles on Friday July the 4th, 2025 for Pancreatic Cancer.

I walked Saturday April 26th it was the Pride Stride walk for Pancreatic Cancer. I was the Number 1 fundraiser at $27,767.00. You can still donate thru June 30th. I walked my 2 miles in 42 minutes! 

 I AM A SURVIVOR
OCTOBER 18TH, 2025 I AM 1 YEAR OUT FROM MY SURGERY.. YEAH?

So on October 18th, 2024  I underwent a Splenectomy & Pancreatectomy. They removed my Spleen completely and the Tumors and 3/4 of my Pancreas. My Oncologists says all cancer is gone. She found another Tumor while doing surgery and took it out also.

I do MRI's every 6 months to make sure it has not come back. I just had an MRI September 18th, 2025. Found lot?s of Cysts, largest Tumor was 11CM.  Everything is stable. Surgeon wants CT Scan and another MRI in 6 months.

Each day I feel somewhat better. Getting some energy back.

I have lost 39# at present. I am now walking on average 5,250 steps a day.| walked 2 times a day.

It?s walking for Pancreatic Cancer Survivors, Caregivers, Researchers.

I am building myself up for the Pancreas Cancer Walk on April 25, 2026 in Scottsdale, Arizona . I will be walking the 2 mile course.

Any Donation would be most welcome! I want to Thank You for all of you helping me reach a goal of helping people going thru this in their lives and to help people less fortunate to get the help they might need at a tough time in their lives. I am asking for any donations to help me raise those funds in my walk for Pancreatic Cancer. Surpassed my 2025 goal and now have set my goals a bit higher for 2026!

PurpleStride participants raise money to fund vital research that can bring new treatment options to patients; free, personalized, one-to-one support through PanCAN Patient Services; and more.

Here's where you come in! I've set an ambitious fundraising goal and need your donations! A gift of any size will help patients and families facing a pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

Thank you for your donations! It means the world to me..

I want to make the biggest impact on the lives of pancreatic cancer patients - and I need you to help me!

Help me fight this terrible disease! Only 13% chance of surviving. The money raised will help with research, as we are trying to get to 20% survival by 2030. So any donation can help us get to that goal. So I ask you to come walk with me or help me with your kind donation.
