- Just 5% of patients survive – it has the worst survival rate of all 22 common cancer
- Pancreatic cancer is the fifth biggest cancer killer
- 27 people are newly diagnosed each day
- 24 people will die each day
- It receives just over 3% of overall cancer research funding: a total of only £8 million in 2015
- Pancreatic cancer affects men and women equally
- For those diagnosed in time for surgery their chance of survival increases significantly
These facts are vital! Life changing and most importantly a life line to raising awareness in honour and hope for those we have lost to this easily ignored killer!
Mark was only 43 and a lifetime still to live with Tina. He thrived to his last moments in raising money to support Pancreatic Cancer Action and I live to carry on his dreams and passion to open people’s eyes and help others!... Wearing Pj’s might not seem like much... but in true Mark style i’m going to find the cheesiest and most hideous nightwear out there to raise the best I can!
Your money can and will save lives... look past my foolishness and please please pleaseeee donate for an amazing charity so close to my families hearts!!
God bless, we love you Mark always! Xxx
