Pancreatic Cancer Has Shaped My Life in Unimaginable Ways

I’ve lost my grandmother, father, mother, and uncle to this relentless disease. Then, I faced my own battle—diagnosed with Stage 3 pancreatic cancer, I fought with everything I had, determined to beat the odds. Along the way, I’ve built deep connections with others facing the same fight, only to experience the heartbreak of losing too many friends to this disease.

Now, more than ever, fundraising is critical. The American Cancer Society reports that in 2025, an estimated 67,440 Americans will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and 51,980 will die from it. The five-year survival rate remains alarmingly low at just 13%, and to make matters worse, recent government cuts have slashed pancreatic cancer research funding by 57%—a devastating setback to progress.

This story isn’t just mine—it’s ours. Together, we can turn pain into purpose and fight for a future where pancreatic cancer no longer steals lives.

Pancreatic cancer is relentless, but so are we. With survival rates still devastatingly low and research funding under attack, your support is more critical than ever. Every dollar fuels life-saving research, provides resources for patients and families, and brings us closer to a future where pancreatic cancer is no longer a death sentence.
