4 years ago tomorrow is a date I will never forget!as it is when I got my diagnosis at 8.45pm on 7th December. At the time hearing the word
#cancer
was a fright but with
#pancreatic
in front of it was when I thought ‘game over’ thankfully I’m able to tell my story
#neverlosehope
If Pamela Deasy got her cancer diagnosis 10 years earlier, she’s sure she wouldn’t be here today, and that’s why she says Breakthrough Cancer Research, marking its 10th year, needs to be supported.
