Story
On the 31/3/17, after a routine endoscopy I was told I have cancer. Two weeks later, it was confirmed as advanced stomach cancer and then I received the devastating news that my cancer is incurable.
My only course of treatment as far as the NHS are concerned is Chemotherapy to prolong life. I however, know this to be untrue and that another pathway is open and available to anyone who chooses it.
I know this because my brother-in-law Trevor was diagnosed with bladder cancer. My sister Carol embarked on a journey of research and discovery into alternate healing and treatments. Their journey concluded with Trevor being declared Cancer free.
With this insight and knowledge I have begun my own journey of alternative treatments and healing. Unfortunately this is a costly process and I am asking you for help because of this.
For complete transparency and to aid your decision I have listed below the daily/weekly/monthly treatments and supplements I am undertaking:
Alternate Healing Therapies
Oxygen therapy = £100 p/m
Reiki= £30 p/m
Kinesiology= £30 p/m
Bio resonance treatment= £120 p/m
TOTAL = £280 p/m
Ongoing Supplements/Vitamins
Essiac Tea = £60 p/m
Soul Seeds (Vits)= £70 p/m
Juice Plus tabs= £61.75 p/m
Pre/probiotics= £25.98 p/m
K2 Vitamins= £5.75 p/m
Enzyme Q10= £17.09 p/m
B17 = £51.94 p/m
Vitamin C = £15 p/m
Vitamin D drops= £10 p/m
Magnesium = £6 p/m
TOTAL = £323.54 per month
To aid in the healing process my diet now consists of solely plant based organic foods which unfortunately also expensive this can routinely cost £80 - £100 p/w.
At the end of June I will also need to pay for another CT Scan that the NHS will not fund due to me refusing Chemo, this costs £1495.
Before selling my house to fund the above my friends, work colleagues and family have urged me to set up this page to help. Any donations big or small will be gratefully received and my girls and I thank you.
