    Today is World Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Day., external

    Karen Stead from Outwood near Wakefield was diagnosed in 2010 and says said she wants others to be aware how important a quick diagnosis is.

    Ms Stead told BBC Radio Leeds: "Pancreatic cancer is one of the hardest to treat. Over half of those diagnosed with it die within 12 weeks and as hard as it seems that is a fact.

    "Only 1% of those diagnosed will make it to 10 years."

    Ms Stead added: "The main symptoms are abdominal pain, unexplained weight loss, indigestion, jaundice, change in bowel habits - and a lot of people start with diabetes in a later stage in life, and that should be an alarm bell."

    To mark the charity awareness campaign buildings in Bradford, Leeds and Wakefield will be lit-up in purple.
