Elsie's Hope for Healing

Donation protected
Elsie is an amazing mama of 3 and grandma of 2. She is a pillar of faith for her family and is so loved by her community.

Two years ago, April of 2016, Elsie was diagnosed with Stage 2 gastric cancer. Her treatment plan was a total gastrectomy, meaning her entire stomach would be removed from her body, followed by six months of chemotherapy. About 1 month before her stomach surgery in June of 2016, her oncologist discovered breast cancer in both breasts. Elsie had her stomach surgery in July of 2016, underwent six months of chemotherapy, and then had a double mastectomy in May of 2017. Between these events, her very first grandchild, Oliver, was born and her husband was deployed for most of her treatment. Elsie's husband is still currently deployed. 

Over the last two years, she has been regularly monitored, going in for scans and tests every few months. Our mom was declared "cancer-free" after her chemotherapy, and seemed to be doing well. She changed her diet to reflect a healthier lifestyle and has kept up with all recommended changes from her doctor.

On August 16, 2018, Elsie's second grandchild, Indigo was born. Just 2 months later, on October 16, 2018, our family received the news that her cancer was back with a vengeance, at Stage 4, spreading into one of her ovaries. Her oncologist gave us an average expectancy of about 1 year and insisted she begin chemotherapy immediately. When asked how long she would have to undergo treatment this time around, he told us it would be indefinite. He also let us know that chemotherapy would not heal her, but only mask the symptoms and manage the pain caused by the cancer. 

Elsie attempted to do a round of chemo, but her body responded poorly and caused her to be extremely weak and ill for several days. Whether or not she is healed from cancer, our priority is to maintain her quality of life at the highest level possible. We, as her kids, don't want her to suffer through chemotherapy again, especially while our dad is deployed, and not here to support her emotionally. Her oncologist stated himself that chemotherapy will do nothing to heal her.

Because of this, Elsie has decided to seek alternative treatment at the Cancer Center for Healing. We are extremely hopeful that this more natural approach to rebuilding the body's immune system can provide extreme healing for our mom, and possibly even cure her of cancer. If there is any possibility that this is her last year of life on earth, then it is our absolute obligation to ensure she's happy and healthy as possible, and able to enjoy time with her family and loved ones. 

The treatment route lined up for her by her new doctor at the Center for Healing is as follows: 

IV Mistletoe P Therapy
IV Salicinium
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF)
Light Beam Generator
Hyperthermia to abdomen
Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber
Garlic Enemas
Several natural supplements

As you might know, natural therapies and medical centers like Center for Healing cannot accept any insurance coverage, therefore all treatments will be out of pocket. Her treatment plan begins with 3 weeks of multiple therapies consecutively. Payment for treatment is due at the end of each day. The center is also located in Irvine which means hotel accommodations and travel are necessary, since she will need to be at the center 5 days in a row each week. Because her treatment requires the initial 3 consecutive weeks, we can't begin her treatment until we have sufficient funds for the total treatment.

Our family has great faith for a medical and financial miracle. And we humbly ask you to partner with us in any way possible so Elsie can begin her treatment immediately!
