Battling Bile Duct Cancer: Founder’s Story

The Bili Project Foundation’s Co-Founder, Sue Acquisto, shares her story of how her husband went from complaining of a stomach ache to being diagnosed with Bile Duct Cancer (Cholangiocarcinoma). Sue is now committed to bringing this cancer into the spotlight as well as funding research to find a cure and better diagnostic tools.

Watch this video as our Co-Founder tells the story of her husband and the stomach ache that was later Bile Duct Cancer. Bile Duct Cancer should probably be called the “goodbye cancer” because once diagnosed, that’s about as much time as you have – time to say goodbye to those close to you. Sadly, our Co-Founder had to experience this.

Watch as she shares what it was like trying to avoid saying goodbye to her husband.
