Kris’s Pancreatic Cancer Battle: A Call for Support
Last November, Kris Drake was hospitalized with what was thought to be pancreatitis. After furthertesting, the devastating truth emerged-she has Stage 2 pancreatic cancer.This diagnosis means the tumor is significant but potentially operable, and with surgery andtreatment, there’s a chance for a cure. But first, Kris had to undergo several months of grueling
chemotherapy to shrink the tumor. She’s now preparing for major surgery in July-the Whippleprocedure-which will be followed by an extended recovery period and likely more chemotherapy.Kris is a registered nurse, a loving mother and grandmother, and the kind of friend who’s always
been there for others. Over the past 8 months, she’s been unable to work, and the bills have beenpiling up. She’s expected to be out of work for at least 6 more months.We’re asking for your help to support Kris during this critical time. Your donation will help cover
basic living expenses and medical bills, easing the burden so she can focus all her strength on
healing.
If you know Kris, you know her heart. Please consider giving what you can-every bit makes a
difference.
Let’s rally around Kris. She’s given so much to others. Now it’s our turn to give back. Thanks!!
