On Sunday, July 27th, I am once again cycling in the Cypress Challenge with my Glotman Simpson team to raise awareness and funds for pancreatic cancer research and care at BC Cancer. This year feels a little more personal as it marks 5 years without my dad.

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.

Since 2008, Cypress Challenge has raised over $5.2 million, and its thanks to the generosity of community members like you. Together, we can drive innovations in research and enhance care to benefit each person facing this disease.

With your help, BC Cancer can continue its vital work to break down this deadly disease.

Please consider making a donation if you can!
Thank you!
