I want and I will heal. Will you help me in my fight against cancer?
Hello, my name is Karen, and I am currently in a difficult battle with cancer, a disease that has completely turned my life upside down. In June 2023, I was diagnosed with stage 3 appendix cancer. The disease had already spread to other organs, with tumors measuring 16 cm in my abdominal cavity. This was a disease I never expected, as I had always felt healthy and had no symptoms. It was pure chance that my cancer was discovered during an annual check-up. The chance of developing appendix cancer is only 0.8% worldwide, which makes it particularly difficult for both me and my doctors to treat. They honestly admitted they were in uncharted territory. The diagnosis was a bombshell, but I decided not to give up.
The Start of the Medical Rollercoaster
After the diagnosis, it quickly became clear that conventional treatments would be the first step. Doctors recommended surgery to remove the tumors and then starting chemotherapy. The chemotherapy that was proposed to me was actually meant for colon cancer, and the doctors couldn’t guarantee it would work for appendix cancer. They gave me little hope: “Most people don’t make it past three years,” they told me. However, I refused to accept that as my reality. I was determined to fight.
The surgery went relatively well, but the chemotherapy that followed was another challenge. During the first treatment, I had a severe allergic reaction, and my entire body temporarily became paralyzed. It was a terrifying experience – I couldn’t move, but I could hear everything around me. After several hours of treatment, I thankfully regained consciousness, but the fear was intense. They adjusted the chemotherapy, but unfortunately, the next attempt led to the same paralysis. Eventually, they found a formula that I could tolerate without severe allergic reactions. But after three months, it became clear that the chemotherapy wasn’t working: the tumors kept growing, and new tumors appeared, some already 11 cm in size. Three weeks later, another surgery was scheduled. During the surgery, they discovered that the tumors had already reached 15 cm and that the cancer had spread throughout my abdominal cavity, intestines, and other organs. This wasn’t visible on scans, because appendix cancer often forms a thin layer of cells on the organs. The doctors performed a HIPEC procedure (heated chemotherapy in the abdominal cavity), but afterward, they indicated that there was little more they could do. It was a heavy message, but I decided again not to give up.
My Search for Alternative Treatments
Conventional medicine could no longer help me; apart from regular check-ups and scans, there was no further treatment available. That’s when I decided to drastically change my lifestyle. Inspired by people like Chris Beat Cancer and CancerFighterOwen, who overcame cancer after the medical world had given up on them, I began searching for alternatives.
I switched to a strict plant-based diet, drank juices made from beets and carrots, and eliminated toxic substances from my home. I also began taking supplements such as vitamin D, turmeric, and selenium, which have been proven to support cancer prevention. I tried treatments like hyperthermia, high-dose vitamin C infusions, and red light therapy, all supported by scientific evidence. The problem is that these treatments are often not available or reimbursed in Belgium, and their costs are high, making it difficult for me to follow them as frequently as I should.
New Scan Results: A New Challenge
A week ago, I received more bad news: new tumors have appeared, this time on my liver, between my spine and intestines. Chemotherapy is no longer an option, and a new surgery is not possible due to the location of the tumors. But despite all of this, I don’t believe my story is over.
Although it’s a setback, I also see it as a sign that the changes I’ve made in my life have had an effect. Healing takes time, and I believe in that! The tumors are no longer growing as quickly as before, and I know I have helped my body slow down the aggression of the cancer. But now, I need more than just diet and juices.
My Chance: Hope4Cancer in Mexico
I have found my solution at Hope4Cancer in Cancún, Mexico. This clinic offers a comprehensive treatment program with advanced therapies like hyperthermia, vitamin C infusions, ozone therapy, PEMF, and B17 therapy. They combine science and holistic approaches to fight cancer on multiple fronts.
What makes this clinic unique is their focus on strengthening my body and immune system through personalized blood tests and tailor-made treatments. People like 'carlyloveskale' and 'cancer.warrior.chic' on Instagram led me to this clinic. Their incredible recovery stories – some have already beaten cancer, others are seeing fantastic progress – prove that these treatments really work.
I believe this is my only chance to beat cancer once and for all. The cost of this program is $56,000, but there are also additional costs of $20,000 for home care and equipment I will need for my recovery after the treatment. Unfortunately, I do not have these resources, and they are not covered by my insurance.
However, time is running out. My cancer is particularly aggressive, and although I am doing everything I can to slow it down with the holistic treatments I am following, it is not enough. I urgently need help to seize this opportunity.
Why I Believe in Healing
My will to heal is stronger than ever. I am determined, I remain positive, and I believe in my body’s ability to recover. I want to share my story to show others that there is always hope, even when conventional medicine can do no more. I am determined to win my fight against cancer, not just for myself but also for my loved ones who are sharing this journey with me. They give me the strength and motivation to keep going every day.
Beyond the physical struggle, I still dream of a future with a family, a little house with a garden, and enjoying the small things in life. I have even started new studies to give myself a goal, which helps me keep looking ahead, even when things are tough.
I believe that God walks this path with me. Everything happens for a reason. I am convinced that this challenge will make me stronger. My faith gives me the strength to stay positive, even when it's difficult. I know I am not alone; I am surrounded by the love and prayers of those who care for me.
Your support makes all the difference. I am grateful for every contribution, big or small. If you are able to contribute, I am deeply thankful. If you are not in a position to help financially, please keep me in your prayers. Your prayers give me strength and confidence, and I believe that God will answer them in His time and in His way. It would also be a huge support if you could share my profile so others can have the opportunity to help as well.
I know I can do this, and I believe that with your help, I can overcome cancer.
