On Sunday, July 27th, my father and I are cycling in the Capilano Volkswagen Cypress Challenge presented by GlotmanSimpson Cycling, raising awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research and care at BC Cancer.

This year, more than 800 British Columbians will be diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Its projected that only 10 per cent (or 80 of those people diagnosed) will live five years.

Pancreatic cancer is difficult to detect at an early stage and is often resistant to treatment. Although it is the tenth most common cancer in Canada, it is the fourth leading cause of cancer death.

Unless more effective treatment strategies are found, pancreatic cancer in Canada is projected to become the second leading cause of cancer death by 2030.

My father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in September 2024. Thanks to BC Cancer and his incredible oncology team at Lions Gate Hospital, his cancer is currently well managed. This ride is a celebration of my dad's strength and resilience, and to raise money and awareness for those whose lives have been impacted by pancreatic cancer.
