Mike Roshar's survivor speech

Tonight was a great night for Pancreatic Cancer awareness.  It was the Purple Light Nationwide Vigil for Hope where over 70 communities lit the night purple to honor and recognize those loved individuals battling or who have battled pancreatic cancer.

My dad was the keynote speaker at the Milwaukee event.  Dad was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer February 12, 2013.  His speech is below.  I couldn't be more proud!!!  My dad is the reason I started this blog, because when he was diagnosed, no one was giving us any hope for a stage four diagnosis.  Eight months out, we are so thankful that he is kicking butt and we celebrate every day! I could say more, but I wouldn't say it better than he says it himself!
