A Sh0cking Diagnosis: Terminal Pancreatic Cancer

Lee Rawlinson, a medical sales representative and passionate marathon runner, lives in Essex, UK, with his wife, Faye, and their two children, Darcey, 10, and Marley, seven. Lee received the devastating news of his pancreatic ca.nce.r diagnosis on Halloween. Medics revealed the disease had already spread to his liver, leaving him with just months to live.
