Help Rosalina Beat Cancer.

Talofa!

My name is Rosalina Vui Toala and I'm originally from the island of Samoa in the Pacific. That is where I met my wonderful husband Leuo and started a family. When we had our first two children, Tina and Junior, we decided in their best interest to move to the United states to give them a better future.


We arrived in the U.S. with almost nothing to our name and had to work very hard. I've always worked as a caregiver and Leuo provided for our family by working in warehouses and moving up to management positions in different stores such as Macy's and Sears. He is also a good businessman and aside from helping our family he has always tried to help other family members.


We have now been in the U.S. for almost 20 years and have added two more children to our family, Paul and Jaxon. Currently we are residing in Burien, Washington and are grateful for the blessings of this country. Tina, Junior, and Paul have all gone to college just as we always dreamed and Jaxon is now just starting elementary school. The family is still growing seeing as Tina married Brett two years ago who is now in his third year of medical school.


I am 47 years old and I feel that I still have so much to live for. I want to live to see my kids graduate college and get good jobs and have children of their own. I have now been battling ovarian cancer for over two years. First off I had the cancer surgically removed which was followed by several rounds of chemotherapy which was very hard on my body. I lost nearly 50 pounds and all of my hair. Recovering my health was so important to me though, so I became very dedicated to eating healthy, walking outside daily, and visiting complimentary medicine doctors to boost my immune system and work with my body.


The standard of care procedures that I received at first helped to slow down the cancer, but it has made an aggressive comeback. The malignancy is spreading in my body and I require additional care. The financial stress of my disease has put a lot of strain on our family and we have worked tirelessly to meet the demands, especially my sweet husband who acquired extra work to support me.


After much research, we have decided as a family upon the "Gerson Therapy" to treat me. It is a revolutionary treatment that works with the body and includes a great deal of supplements (ouch), organic foods (double ouch), and juices. This treatment doesn't cost near as much as chemotherapy (even after insurance's contribution), but it is still a lot of expense out of pocket. As we mentioned the supplements and organic foods add up very quickly because the treatment calls for 13 juices, countless supplements, and up to 5 organic coffee enemas per day. The Gerson protocol needs to be followed for at least 2 years and possibly longer for optimal results. Part of these donations will also be used to fund my stay at the Gerson Cancer Clinic which is required in my healing journey. This is where we could really use your help and generosity. Anything you can give is greatly appreciated and goes directly towards my treatment. Upon successful completion I plan to help others with cancer in their journey towards health and wellness.


With Immense Love and Gratitude!
