Orlando All In For A Cure Charity Poker Tournament

It has been awhile since I've posted a blog but it is time to get things going for the 2010 All In For A Cure Charity Poker Tournament. This year we are adding fundraising events leading up to the main event to help raise additional money and give everyone a chance to win a seat into the main event in October/November. One of our first events this year is going to be a CoEd Softball Tournament sometime in May which I will have a set date here soon. If you are interested in the tournamnet check out additional information  on the Orlando Charity CoEd Softball Tournament page.

Patrick Swayze was a shining star in Hollywood and will be missed by fans from around the world. His brave, public battle with pancreatic cancer provided hope for all those afflicted with this terrible disease.

For nearly two years he beat the odds stacked against him and brought awareness to the fourth leading cause of cancer death in the United States.  In fact, 76% of patients die within the first year of diagnosis and the five year survival rate is just 5% because there are no effective early detection tools or treatments for this disease. Despite these statistics, pancreatic cancer is the least funded among leading cancer killers in our country.

We must take action to ensure scientific progress is made to give pancreatic cancer patients a fighting chance. We need our Members of Congress to co-sponsor The Pancreatic Cancer Research & Education Act so that we will have the necessary funding to make true progress against this disease.  This is critical now more than ever because the number of pancreatic cancer patients is projected to increase by 12% in 2009 and by 55% by 2030.
