What cancer awareness is purple?

My friend's mother is battling cancer, and I want to support them by wearing the right color ribbon. Which type of cancer is typically represented by the color purple?

Purple is for pancreatic cancer, right? I always get confused with the ribbons. Is it also for any other cancers, or mainly just pancreatic? I worry about remembering all these.

Haan, purple color wala cancer pancreatic cancer ke liye hai. Bahut mushkil bimari hai, bhagwan sabko shakti de. Humein sabki madat karni chahiye.

I think purple is for pancreatic cancer awareness. Is there a specific reason why different cancers have different colors? Like, does purple signify anything particular for pancreatic cancer?

Oh, the purple one. That's Pancreatic Cancer Awareness. Honestly, every other month is a cancer awareness month these days. My calendar is more colorful than my wardrobe, but it's important work, I guess. Keep healthy, everyone.
