Pancreatic Cancer
PurpleStride Detroit 2011 will be held
Sunday, Oct. 9, at the Detroit Zoo in Royal
Oak. This family run/walk is the third

survival rate. Within one year of diagno-
sis, 75 percent of patients will die, and 94
percent will die within five years.
• Of the top five deadliest cancers, pan-
creatic cancer has the lowest survival rate
(6 percent).
• The current state of pancreatic can-
cer research and understanding of the
disease is equal to where breast cancer
research was in the 1930s.
Walk registration begins at 7 a.m. Cost
is $25 for adults on the day of the event.
Opening ceremony is at 8:30 a.m., with
the walk beginning at 9 a.m.
