My Dad died of this vile disease last January a mere 11 weeks after diagnosis and 3 years of suffering. I began raising awareness online through Facebook (Families in Support of Pancreatic Cancer Awareness) and through my local media. It is time PC was made a priority, other cancers get so much more publicity.
Good luck Wendy!
