2016 Pancreatic Cancer Research 18-Hole Stroll On August 7th

2016 Pancreatic Cancer Research 18-Hole Stroll On August 7th is at the The Travelers Championship, TPC River Highlands, Cromwell, CT  this year.  Three years ago of our ActiveRain members here in CT, Gail Robinson, lost her husband Bill to Pancreatic Cancer.  Gail Robinson is one of the nicest, and most courageous person I have met.  The battle her and her husband Bill fought with Pancreatic Cancer  the last few years of his life were both an inspirational, and heartfelt one for me.  The end of that battle for Bill was not the one many of us here on ActiveRain had hoped and prayed for.  But even though Bill's fight with Pancreatic Cancer came to an end, it does not mean others can not carry on the battle to bring an end to this horrible and deadly disease.

While there are several Races and Walks for cancer going on in the area, this is the only one I have seen advertised for Pancreatic Cancers in this year.  All the efforts to raise money to try to cure this disease which rears its head in many horrible ways, are worth our contributions, volunteer work, and prayers.

I would encourage all who are reading this blog to pass on the word, and encourage those you know to contribute in the battle to put an end to cancer.  Whether the involvement is this Pancreatic Cancer event, or the many Races & Walks that are also being held on behave of Breast Cancer, get involved in one way or another.

This Sunday, August 7th is an opportunity to begin your involvement by participating in the 2016 Pancreatic Cancer Research 18-Hole StrollYour efforts can go a long way in making this event to raise money and awareness for Pancreatic Cancer a success.  If you cannot be there, contact them at the Cure Pancreatic Cancer Lustgarten Foundation and make a financial contribution.

Hi George, Pancreatic cancer is still causing me heartache.  Right after my husband died, a friend had left a message on the funeral site saying, "There, but for the grace of God, go I."  Well two months later he was diagnosed with PC.  He's still alive, but it's now three years later and his health is failing and he's now trying an experimental treatment.  They are getting close to finding a cure for many cancers through immunotherapy.  Thank you for helping to fund this research.  It is one of the most heartbreaking cancers, because by the time it is discovered it is often too late.

In 1992, I lost a very special person in my life to Pancreatic cancer.  We got the bad news with the diagnosis in April of that year.  He passed in early September. Less than 5 months later.  In today's world, there have been advances in treatment, but it still remains a very dire disease.  Hopefully, one day, it won't exist!

George, Cancer touches all of us in one way or another. It's a silent killer that takes far too many lives ... young and old.

A terrific cause...George. Pancreatic cancer is not one we hear a lot about. Hope your 18 hole stroll raises a ton of money.

We know someone who knows that 60 days of life is all there is left...not yet 50 with having this dread disease spread to many parts of her body and now her brain....fight and research is what we all owe humanity.

George, I believe we all have ones close to us that have passed from the disease and finding a cure, working on stem cell research and giving more time to live is so important...a great fundraiser to promote.

I hope you have a really huge turnout. There needs to be funds to do research and put a end to the ugliness of cancer.
