Star Trek Actress Kitty Swink Was Given a 4% Survival Rate After Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosis — It's Been 20 Years

'Star Trek' actress and activist Kitty Swink was given a 4% chance of surviving five years after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer — she recently hit the 20-year mark.

The day following her appointment, she says her urine had turned brown, and she got an urgent call from the doctor saying her kidneys and liver were shutting down. "And one of the great things you can do if you're worried or have been diagnosed is you can call PanCan patient services and they can help you find a physician who actually knows what to look for."
