On November 27th I watched my mother take her last breathe via video call to a disease that doesn't get enough attention. I was 2 weeks away from being with her, to hold her hand, but her body had enough. Now I fight for her. I fight for others who are getting the news too late because early screenings almost never happen. I will walk 2km a day to fight Pancreatic cancer. Often I will walk much more, but 2km I can always promise. All proceeds go directly to Pancan. Help me fight for my mom and others who are getting the news today that will change not only their lives, but the lives of everyone around them.
