Team Purple Popsie
As many of you know, last year I was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. Thanks to a great oncology team at Mass General, I was able to have an early diagnosis and surgery. Recently I found out that my cancer has metastasized and is now in my liver. I am undergoing chemo therapy and again, will beat this terrible disease. I want to thank my wife, family and friends for all their support through my surgery and chemotherapy. My family and I are again joining John Day and his family (Team Purple Popsie)on March 2, 2025 on a walk to raise awareness for The Lustgarten Cancer Research Foundation.
I am participating in Lustgarten's Walk for Pancreatic Cancer Research to celebrate the progress that has been made and to power tomorrow's research. Please support my goal as I embrace Lustgarten's vision of transforming pancreatic cancer into a curable disease. Donate to my page and provide hope to thousands of families touched by this devastating disease.
Why Lustgarten? They are the nation’s largest private funder of pancreatic cancer research. Thanks to separate funding of administrative expenses, 100% of my fundraising and your donation funds pancreatic cancer research - research led by Lustgarten and powered by you! Together, we will raise more money for research advancements than I ever could alone.
Your contribution will help me achieve my goal so that more funding can be allocated for research into early detection and new treatments. Please share this page with any friends you think might be interested in donating, and join me on this journey towards a cure.
