Lumi Acuna

Challenge 24

I’m fundraising for Pancreatic Cancer UK

November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and I’m fundraising to help drive research breakthroughs that could save lives.

I am doing this for my Nana who passed away from pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer is a silent killer. My Nana meant the world to me and I would not have grown up to be the way I am if it was not for her reminding myself of what she would say to me such as “don’t be so ridiculous” these words go through my head on the daily when I am being an idiot or over thinking something. I still speak to her when I go to my favourite place in the world not the same as if she was still here. Help other people to have their loved ones still here so they can keep talking to them.

Pancreatic cancer has been left behind. Survival rates have improved enormously for most cancers. 

Sadly, for pancreatic cancer, this is not the case. Currently, more than half of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die within 3 months. This is unacceptable. 

The funds I raise could support research into early detection and better treatments, and provide health professionals with the tools they need to spot patients’ symptoms earlier.

Your donation has the power to make that possible. Thank you.

This is a great cause and means a lot please help other people by helping research to catch it early and change the stats because this cancer is awful so please donating.  

My donations could fund...

3 hours with a nurse on our support line

1 hours of early diagnosis research
