I'm fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK.
Hi to all my RCGC friends and members!
What's this all about? Have a sit down and lets start from the beginning..... the bad news is that in July I had a scan on a nagging back issue (golf injury I thought), which sadly became a 'turn your world upside down' moment when I was subsequently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Unfortunately it was a late find as the symptoms aren't commonly known... so i'm currently engaged in chemotherapy treatment. The fight back is on! I'm feeling much stronger, in great spirits and determined to beat the odds.
Why post now? Well this is pancreatic cancer awareness month.
I found out that pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer. More than half of people die within three months of diagnosis.
Survival rates for other cancers have improved dramatically in recent years. But decades of underfunding mean we still don’t have the tests and treatments to tackle this disease. People with pancreatic cancer have been overlooked and ignored for far too long.
That’s why I’m fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK and I'd really appreciate your support. Your donations will support vital, world-leading research, ensure specialist nurses are there to take more calls and fuel campaigns to drive positive change.
Together, we will bring more than hope to people affected by pancreatic cancer.
My donations could fund...
61 hours with a nurse on our Support Line
or
27 hours of early diagnosis research
