Review for Esophageal Cancer Action Network, Inc. (ECAN), Stevenson, MD, USA
My husband of 21 years died from esophageal cancer in 2010 after a nearly 3 year fight. He suffered all his life from chronic and severe heartburn. We had no idea at the time that it caused his cancer. I became aware of it after getting involved with ECAN. The work they do to raise awareness and bring attention to this horrific disease, and to educate on the correlation between esophageal cancer and heartburn has been tireless and important. My life changed drastically when my husband was diagnosed, treated, and ultimately passed. My young daughters lost their hero and I lost the love of my life. ECAN helped me through that difficult journey. I am forever grateful for the information and support of ECAN.
Review for Esophageal Cancer Action Network, Inc. (ECAN), Stevenson, MD, USA
When my husband of 20+ years was diagnosed with esophageal cancer in 2008 we were devastated. ECAN offered a multitude of support, information, and guidance. After my husbands passing in 2010 we decided to honor him and help others by fundraising and donating to ECAN. This organization works tirelessly to honor those lost to this horrible disease, educate others if the facts, and raise awareness and funds to support EC research.
