PCAM Challenge 24

I'm fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month

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...

1

hours with a nurse on our support line

0

hours of early diagnosis research

My Story

It is that time of year when I need to get my arse in gear and motivate myself to exercise. In my busy schedule of working, study and being a mum, I struggle to prioritise the time to exercise. 
I saw this challenge on Facebook. As a health care professional, I have cared for many patients from diagnosis to terminal illness with Pancreatic cancer which is an awful disease. Often diagnosed very late  with very little treatment other than palliative care. With very limited prognosis.
Personally I have cared for a family member to end of life with Pancreatic cancer. I have also known many people personally who have been diagnosed and passed away from this disease.
Whilst my challenge is not excessive, it is achievable in my busy life. And any money raised for this charity may help patients, families and aid research to developing more responsive treatment and services..
I have two young children who also continue to be affected by family loss. 
So how little I can do….
Anything  is better than nothing xxx
