If you'd like to honor Jolene with a gift to PanCAN, here's how!

Eli and I just finished the PanCAN PurpleStride walk/fundraiser in St. Paul, as you saw from my previous picture.

PurpleStride participants raise money to fund vital research that can bring new diagnostic and treatment options to patients and more. They're also doing what they can to lobby in Washington to protect vital federal research funding—a tall order these days.

Pancreatic cancer is nearly impossible to diagnose before it's too late. That's why Jolene didn't know she had it until it was already Stage 4. We need to learn more to save lives.

I was supposed to post this a few weeks ago--before the walk. But here we are. So, I would appreciate your gift, if you are inclined. I'm sure Jolene would too . . . even though she'd roll her eyes that I'm so late.
