It’s amazing to think that millions of people will be diagnosed with cancer this year. I and somebody close to me is one of them. On April 10, 2012, I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and the realization of the need became real to me. We all should participate in events that can help because we’ve been affected by cancer in some way and because a Relay for Life event gives us the power to make a difference and fight back. This is my opportunity to honor cancer survivors, remember people we have lost, and help raise funds for groundbreaking research, information and services for people fighting cancer. Together, we have the power to help create a world where cancer can no longer claim another year of anyone’s life. This is a scary journey and hopefully you will join me.
