Melanoma My Way
Donation protected
My name is Christi and I live in Albuquerque, NM!
The journey through life is filled with twists and turns, ups and downs, and I keep my focus on God to light the way. I fall short often, but thankfully I have many positive influences in my world that remind me of who's in charge.
My rollercoaster took off on a wild turn and turned me upside down this August with a visit to my dermatologist. Given my skin tone it is not unusual to have things scraped and burned, but I sensed uneasiness with the doctor this time as she scraped one spot on my right thigh, and one on my left foot. I anticipated the follow up call, and often found myself holding my breath when thinking about it. I already knew the news would not be good and it wasn't. Both spots were positive for melanoma and I experienced the feeling of my heart falling out of my chest for the first time. I tried to make sense of how I could possibly have cancer, I mean seriously, I am super healthy and have had a 96% plant based diet for the past three years. Yes, I know there is more to it, but my brain went there. I waited two weeks for a consultation with the Cancer Center, and once the consultation happened I fell fast and furious into the medical world of healing cancer. I was scheduled for surgery so fast it made my head spin. The thigh would be easy, but the foot would require a skin graft to cover the section of my foot they needed to remove. Still spinning upside down. Because of the knowledge I have gained over the years about curing cancer naturally, I struggled with having the surgery. I moved forward with the surgery as I asked God for a sign and he gave it to me. The surgery was in September and all things considered the recovery has been fairly simple. Healing a foot always has its challenges. I hav remained on the emotional "I have cancer" rollercoaster, which cannot be described unless you have heard those three words in your lifetime. I anxiously awaited the results of the surgery (that's another story in itself) and just found out last week that they did not get all the cancer.
More surgery, more spinning, and while hanging upside down I have been doing tons of cancer research. My life is literally in my hands and that is scary. I have decided to adopt a natural approach against the wishes of many who are not afraid to tell me, and in turn make me even more scared. The one thing is, God is in charge and if I am confident about anything, it's that...but, it's still scary.
I am now a member of "Square One Program" which is run by Chris Wark of Chris Beat Cancer. I am excited about the support and the easy to follow day-by-day plan. There are many purchases I need to make and thought I had it covered with a side job in Nov & Dec that paid very generously. I just found out that will not happen and so the twists and turns keep turning. I need money to purchase things like supplements, apricot kernels, coffee enemas, mushroom powder, shower filter, essential oils, apricot kernels, hyperbaric oxygen treatments, aloe vera juice, teas, and many more things that I need to purchase as soon as possible. My diet is golden but I need to support my immune system quickly.
I felt defeated on Friday and God showed up again and said there was another way. Go Fund Me has not left my head since. This is way out of my comfort zone, but I am being guided that creating this page is part of the healing process. I appreciate any donation you are able to make so I can start incorporating the things I need ASAP to cure melanoma my way.
Please leave your address so I can mail a thank you card. I will also be starting a Facebook page so you can see your donations in action. Let me know if you would like to be invited to that page. I am so grateful for any amount your able to help with and thank you so very much....
Peace~
