The Day That Changed My Life - Surviving Pancreatic Cancer

November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness month. Pancreatic cancer has been known to have a high mortality rate and hearing that one has been diagnosed with cancer of the pancreas usually comes with the fear of losing the battle with cancer.

Today we feature the journey of those who have survived cancer. Howard Ebert spoke of his family history with cancer; Bill Roeh speaks of his journey and how his faith brought him through. The healthcare professional team discusses Pancreatic Cancer and the treatment options through the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network.

While each journey is unique, we all share a common theme - cancer changes our lives forever.

The Day That Changed My Life - Moving Ahead Through Tough Times

There are some stories that are incredibly impressive as we learn about the accomplishments that someone has made. Here is one that we would love to share - a cancer survivor who has enjoyed an adventurous life from being a bat boy for the New York Yankees, working his way to be a Captain of the New York City Dept of Correction, earning two masters and moving on to become a Ph.D. candidate in Educational Administration at Dowling College.

What's even more impressive is not just his journey accomplishing things in life, but how he faced cancer twice and managed to survive while moving right along. Dr Toulon shares his journey from his concerns to his determination.
