My lovely mam was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer on June 15th 2011. The whole family were devastated by the diagnosis and were saddened and shocked to discover that only 3% of pancreatic cancer patients live beyond 5 years after diagnosis. This dreadful statistic has been the same for over 40 years. Despite the diagnosis mam kept positive and stayed strong saying 'I must fight this, I have so much to live for'.....sadly just 9 weeks later she lost her battle on August 22nd 2011.

Pancreatic cancer has been underfunded for decades. Despite being predicted to be the 4th biggest cancer killer in the UK by the end of 2011, pancreatic cancer still receives less than 2% of total research funding.

Pancreatic cancer is under-funded, under-researched and in dire need of publicity. We need increased investment into pancreatic cancer so it is better understood, treatable and familiar.

Please donate to this worthy cause no matter how small.  Thanks for reading. Please share/donate.
