Help Collena Fight Stage 4 Cancer

My name is Collena. I’ve been diagnosed with Stage 4 colon cancer, and for 35 days I cried mostly thinking about my three sons, who would lose the only parent they have left. I haven’t experienced the joy of a grandchild yet, and I don’t want to miss that future. I’m not afraid to die if that is God’s will, but I refuse to die because I didn’t try everything possible to survive. I’m ready to fight.

I’ve been doing everything I can to fight this on my own. Surviving on food stamps alone, I’ve been able to get herbal teas, nuts, seeds, and other cancer-fighting foods. I’m doing everything possible to heal naturally, but I know these efforts alone are not enough to stop this cancer. I can feel it growing.

I’ve been out of work for months and have zero dollars or resources left. I’ve borrowed from family to prevent eviction and to keep my car out of repossession. It’s humbling and heartbreaking to ask others to carry the load I’ve always carried myself. My youngest son has been covering all my bills, watching him sink deeper and become more stressed every month, while I wait for disability, makes me feel like such a burden.

Doctors offered chemo, radiation, surgery and then immunotherapy but my body reacts severely to medications. I feel all that would be my demise. I’d love to try instead a high-dose Vitamin C therapy (IVC), a holistic treatment shown to target cancer cells while leaving healthy cells intact. This gives me a real chance to survive, but I cannot do it without help.

Time is critical. A new tumor appeared in my abdomen a few days ago (so I know it’s growing). I call it “Squats,” partly because cancer is a scary word that I don’t want to say and partly because it’s a squatting freeloader that has invaded my personal space and my life. I want it gone, and I want my life back.

Me and my sons are deeply grateful for every donation, share, and prayer. Your kindness gives me hope and fuels my fight. With faith, determination, and your support, I CAN and WILL beat this.

With all our hearts,

Collena
