Video Description:
On 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.

What a wonderful man you were.
I am so sad that you're no longer here.
May the angels in Heaven give you a little extra TLC, because you deserve it.
:( :( :( :( :(
As an thyroid cancer survivor from the age 16, this should be a warning for U.S. for its programs. Everything about medicine has been very capitalistic and this is true for in all aspects. (Medicine, Doctors and research)
I am not crying out for communism but for the farewell of humanity social medicine and research is only the just thing to do.
Farewell prof. Rest in peace. Hope on day humanity will understand every message you have left us.
I wish your spirit well on its travel to the next plane.
I hope to see that fund grow and grow in honor of this man's memory and in hopes of helping others who don't even know they have pancreatic cancer yet!
Again, thanks Randy Pausch for changing my life!
I don`t have words to describe this man! :(
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.
May we all die so bravely.
