Founder of Stand up To Cancer and producer of movies like Spiderman, Pretty Woman, and As Good As It Gets, Laura Ziskin, lost her seven year battle with breast cancer this past weekend.

Even as her own cancer spread, she never lost her will to fight, or her faith that we can and will cure cancer.

"The truth is cancer doesn't care who you are, where you come from, how much money you have, and how famous you are. You can't run from it. But you can fight it. And, we are confident, one day, we as a people will conquer it. Twelve million cancer survivors are living proof we can change the odds against this disease."

A year after being diagnosed, Laura used her influence in Hollywood, along with her will to survive, to launch the largest, strongest fight against cancer that the world had ever seen.

Since 2008, Stand Up To Cancer has raised more than $200 million to fund research, help scientists from different institutions work together, and get the resulting treatments and cures to patients as fast as possible.

Laura will certainly be missed, but her legacy lives on, and her dream of making every cancer patient a survivor is something that we will all continue to fight for.
