WASHINGTON — U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.) released a video statement in commemoration of Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day today, November 17:
“Many of us have been touched personally by this dreaded disease. I lost my own father in 2017 to pancreatic cancer, as well as my uncle, my pastor, friends who I have served with in the Senate, and many I’ve known in my community. It weighs heavily on my heart, and I just wanted to share with you a message of hope,” said Senator Coons in the video.
He continued, “I want to thank all of you, who are researchers, who are caring for those who are struggling with pancreatic cancer, or who have lost a loved one. … I look forward to working with you for many, many years to come, to make sure that we bring an end to a world with pancreatic cancer.”
