Pancreatic Cancer Action Network PSA with Dr. Randy Pausch


Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US, but receives extremely little federal funding to support research efforts. Dr. Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon professor who has pancreatic cancer, has joined efforts with the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network to urge the federal government to provide critical funding to speed the cure for this horrible disease.

dear professor. I wish you the best and I believe yo0u believe in what you preach, after all you are a professor. But science has let us all down. As much as I want to help I do not believe in official research and I do not believe in research founded by the pharmaceutical industry. For them the best patient is a chronicalo ill one. I would contribute to organizations looking for a cure without a prejudice.

i am sorry for your loss. i my mom lost her battle with pancan 6 months ago. she was only 65 and just retired. God i miss her. it's so unfair.

my mom recently died from pancreatic cancer. she fought for 20 months. they were the best and worst days of my life. say and do everything that you want to do with your loved ones. i was lucky enought to have the chance to say every single thing i wanted to say to her. and ask her every question i could think of. she also left me with a letter of love and encouragement i will cherish forever. some people don't get that chance. all of you should call your mom and tell her you love her.

beautiful attitude. No matter how long Randy lives, he will never completely die.

My mom died from pancreatic cancer three years ago. She was 49 and I was 20. It was the worst day of my life, but it has since become one of my missions in life to promote pancreatic cancer awareness and the need for cancer research funding. I applaud Randy Paush for all he has been doing to do just that. God Bless him.

I lost a very dear friend to pancreatic cancer. She was 54. It breaks my heart to think that she is no longer here. Thank you for sharing this video. I will do the same.
