[HauntingGrammar]

Pancreatic cancer has a huge deathrate; like, ninety-something percent.

Randy Pausch is awesome.

[KingOfTheBritains]

@HauntingGrammar You're spot on about the death rate. Watch the second link in the description. Randy talks about the daunting stats and about PanCAN. And yes, he is pretty awesome. :)

Thanks for the reminder of Randy Pausch's brilliant life example. Your video just compelled me to push the pancreatic cancer donation total a bit higher. Good work!

[KingOfTheBritains]

@JimboniusIV I can't tell you how much it means to me that my video has propelled someone to donate. Thank you so much. Really. You are amazing.

[JimboniusIV]

@KingOfTheBritains -- That was the idea, right? You did a good job of it. You're welcome.

[holdenmkrotch]

You are the best, most awesome person that I've seen. I'm so glad that you've come back for this.

[KingOfTheBritains]

@holdenmkrotch I'm glad I came back too. In the back of my head, I was kind of thinking...How could I not come back for this? :) thanks :)

Also, "Don't complain, just work harder" was my rugby team's motto the year we won the city championship. I have a poster of Jackie Robinson in my room.

[KingOfTheBritains]

@RyanB35 That is so fantastic...And hey, congrats on the win then! :)

[RyanB35]

Randy Pausch is the single greatest inspiration I have in my life. I've watched the last lecture about 10 times.

One of the reasons I love you is because you're probably the only person I know (well I don't actually know you) that cares about Randy as much as I do. I wish you posted more videos.

[KingOfTheBritains]

@RyanB35 I've been trying to think of a way to adequately reply to this comment...but I still can't. Thank you.

I've probably watched it about 10 times myself.

(And, when I do post in the future, I hope it lives up to your standards.)

Sounds like I need to go watch an amazing lecture. It's always nice to see you throw a video on this channel.

-Franc

[KingOfTheBritains]

@oneqwerty :) it is pretty amazing. And glad to post. :)

[funkwurm]

I was so happy when you talked about his lecture the first time. I had seen it but forgotten his name or anything to find it back.

What an inspiration, and what amazing quotes you can take away from it :)

"Mothers are people who love you even if you pull their hair"

[KingOfTheBritains]

@funkwurm hahahah my favorite is "Growing up, I thought there were two types of families: 1) Those who need a dictionary to get through dinner. 2) Those who don't. "

[EmotionsNeverLie]

I'd like to make P4A, but my camera broke, sorry.

[KingOfTheBritains]

[StopPancreaticCancer]

Thank you for your efforts!

[KingOfTheBritains]

@StopPancreaticCancer You are quite welcome. Anything to help.

[8Tails]

*claps* Seriously. You should talk about important things more often. Because you're really good at it. =)

I didn't recognize his name. But when I saw him, I remembered. He had been on an episode of Oprah. He's amazing. I'll definitely watch it. =)

[KingOfTheBritains]

@8Tails Why thank you :) hahaha yes you should totally watch it.

[crimsong19]

Really awesome stuff, Jen! I've kinda been meaning to check out The Last Lecture over the last few years, partially because of your constant plugging. I just checked my library website and both copies of the book are in. So I just might have to go check the book out.

- Jason

[KingOfTheBritains]

@crimsong19 The book is fantastic! Highly recommend it.

[allisonmn]

Great video! I am a huge fan of Randy Pausch and the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. Thank you for making this.
