My story
Updated on May 31st 2012 at 2:50 AM from the JustGiving API
http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GQnhDBiTjvg
On 17th May 2011 our father passed away after suffering for 7 weeks from Severe Acute Necrosing Pancreatitis. In this type of pancreatitis the inflammed pancreatic tissue begins to die causing cell death. He did not have gall stones nor did he drink alcohol in fact we never imagined that we would loose our father to such a cruel and fatal disease.
Approximately 12,000 cases of Acute Pancreatitis are reported in the UK every year and approximately 1000 die from the disease. There are no drugs available to treat this illness, instead the damaged parts of the pancreas are surgically removed and drains inserted in the abdomen to drain the pancreatic fluid - thus the patient is normally taken to theatre on a number of occasions. As the disease affects the vital organs of the body it eventually can lead to numerous complications such as organ failure and infection making surgery a non feasible option.
We have therefore decided to raise money for the charity CORE who fund research projects into Severe Acute Necrosing Pancreatitis and would welcome your assistance in helping us raise as much money as we possibly can to aid research in this area.
Your donation is very much appreciated.
Thank-you!
