We’re honored to share the story of Gerri Weiner, a three-year pancreatic cancer thriver. Diagnosed unexpectedly after a routine CT scan revealed a shadow on her pancreas, Gerri’s journey reminds us of the power of early detection.

Eight years before her diagnosis, Gerri’s father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, making her own diagnosis all the more surreal. Now, she uses her voice to bring awareness, hope, and encouragement to others. In this heartfelt conversation, Gerri opens up about survivor’s guilt, protecting her children’s future, and finding purpose through advocacy.

From “shadow on the scan” to thriver, advocate, and inspiration—Gerri’s journey is one you won’t want to miss.

Can Early Detection Change the Outcome of Pancreatic Cancer?

Posted in charities, non-profits on June 17, 2025 by OC Talk Radio

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-bwipb-18ddf8a

In this episode, we welcome Ken Miller, a stage 1 pancreatic cancer survivor diagnosed less than a year ago—one of the earliest diagnoses we’ve featured. Ken shares how subtle signs like rising blood sugar and digestive issues led to a critical second opinion that changed everything.

He opens up about the physical and emotional challenges of treatment and recovery, including fatigue, neuropathy, and finding his “new normal.” Ken also reflects on the vital role his wife and children played throughout his journey and offers powerful advice for others: trust your instincts, speak up, and never ignore changes in your health.

Ken’s story is a moving reminder that early detection, determination, and strong support can make a life-saving difference.
