Randy Pausch's testimony to the Labor, Health and Human Serv
BackOn March 13, 2008, Dr. Randy Pausch provided testimony to the Labor, Health & Human Services Subcommittee on behalf of the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. This is his personal story about his diagnosis of pancreatic cancer and his fight to survive.
Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in the US, but receives extremely little federal funding to support research efforts. In March of 2008, the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network went to Congress to urge the federal government to provide critical funding to speed the cure for this horrible disease.

As a survivor of cancer, I am in remission, melanoma, I can truly empathize with Dr.Pausch. Having taken medical disability, I have concentrated my effort& time on Pediatric Oncology/Hematology. Thank-you for your testimony Dr.Pausch, your voice shall be heard in the medical community and to all people. Peace

God bless you Randy and your family. You are an angel in heaven. My father is battling pancreatic cancer and he fights everyday. I pray there is more research and a cure in the future. Its a terrible agressive disease.

I highly appreciate your words, love, patient, simplicity and your gentle behaviour.
I wish we had many of Randy in our world, because we need to be educated and encouraged properly. Randy, I swear on god that I miss you too much and whenever I watch your videos my heart goes out for you but I can not prevent myself from watching your interviews and lectures. I sincerely and humbly have special regards to his brave wife and lovely children. May god bless you Randy and your soul rest in peace.
