Alvin Borba's Medical Fund

Donation protected

Alvin Borba was recently diagnosed with lung cancer and is currently receiving treatments through a functional medicine provider.  These treatments are not covered by health insurance.  Functional medicine looks for the underlying cause of illness and disease through specialized lab testing to address the patient's metabolism and neurochemistry.  Proper nutritional and dietary supplementation helps patients improve and recover from many disorders naturally.  Cancer conditions can never be "cured" in the sense that the disease process is eliminated, but if the underlying triggers are discovered and removed, the body can control the immune system and reverse the effects.  Cancer stem cells are always present, and unless the trigger(s) are removed, it will likely return.  The goal is to treat the lifestyle changes necessary to get and keep the patient at their optimal health.  All donations will go directly toward Alvin's medical costs.  For more information on functional medicine, please visit www.functionalmedicine.org.  All donations are greatly appreciated.  Thank you so much for your support!
