As the majority of you know, last September 2014 I lost my mom to Pancreatic Cancer. She passed within 4 months of her diagnosis, because, well, she had been misdiagnosed, but let's be honest, only 6% of those who battle Pancreatic cancer will make it to the 5 year mark and that is the life expectancy. What I haven't mentioned, is my soul sister that died from Breast Cancer this last June, the cancer had begun to attack her pancreas. I don't think I need to say anything more about that. It was still breast cancer, but you can see how testy and moody the pancreas is. After my mama passed, I vowed that I would do what I can to help bring awareness to this terribly underfunded cancer research and, as Pancan.org says, WAGE HOPE. Cancer in general is a bitch and it sucks, but everyone deserves a fighting chance and we can only make that happen by bringing awareness to this cause. Tomorrow I will be walking in honor of my mom at the OC...
We all have a voice that has something to say.
