Et Håb for Marianne - A Hope for Marianne

️️️Kampagne til støtte for værdig kræftbehandling. ️(English version after the Danish)️️

Husk at dit firma også kan donere. (Se under: 'For virksomheder og sponsorer')

️Kampagnens formål

Marianne er 44 år og lægerne har diagnosticeret hende med fremskreden kræft. Signet Ring Celle Karcinom er en aggressiv form for kræft, som desværre i de fleste tilfælde bliver opdaget sent, da cellerne ’gemmer’ sig. Hun har fået tilbudt livsforlængende kemoterapi og immunterapi herhjemme i Danmark.

Sammen med sin familie har hun valgt også at søge andre veje, fordi lægernes terminale diagnose er uacceptabel. For at øge chancerne for at overleve, søger Marianne yderligere behandling i Tyskland. Dette betyder, at ud over immunterapi og kemoterapi på Odense Universitets Hospital, ønsker de at starte Immunogenic cell death (ICD) terapi samt Dendritcelle terapi og desuden alternative behandlinger såsom intravenøse høj dosis vitamin C og gurkemeje infusioner.

Den 24. juni 2025 blev Marianne opereret for kræft i spiserøret. Her skulle lægerne fjerne et stykke af spiserøret, fordi det var her, de opdagede celleforandringen. Men da Marianne vågnede efter operationen, havde de fjernet hele spiserøret, hele mavesækken og lymferne, fordi de også her fandt kræft. Under operationen fjernede lægerne alt den kræft de kunne se, men der er fortsat kræft i bugen og på luftrøret. Da der på nuværende tidspunkt ikke er forbindelse mellem mund og fordøjelsessystemet, kan Marianne ikke spise. Den eneste næring hun kan få er med ernæringssonde isat tyndtarmen og med en stomipose uden på halsen. På trods af dette mærker Marianne ikke kræften. Marianne elsker stadig livet, er aktiv og er taknemmelig fordi hun stadig er her og har ingen smerter lige nu. Så vidt det er muligt, hjælper Marianne fortsat en håndfuld klienter og holder gang i sin spirituelle livsstil 110%

Behandlingen gives i Tyskland og er ikke dækket af det offentlige.

Derfor samler vi nu ind – i håbet om at øge chancerne for at komme igennem et kræftforløb og give Marianne håb for at leve.

Hvem er Marianne?

Marianne har dedikeret sit liv til at hjælpe andre.

Hun er psykoterapeut og har tidligere arbejdet med udsatte børn og unge. I dag driver hun sin egen praksis, hvor hun møder sine klienter med varme, rummelighed og respekt – ofte til reduceret pris, fordi hjælp ikke bør være forbeholdt de få.

Den spirituelle del fylder måske endnu mere disse dage. Hun mediterer og modtager alternative behandlinger fra vennerne. Marianne har de seneste år øget interessen inden for det spirituelle, hun laver kakaoceremonier, har en reiki-uddannelse og spiller både på krystal syngeskåle og hvert år i august afholder hun børne- og kvindelejr hjemme på gården. På kvindelejr er der alt fra ceremonier til glade unger, der leger 4 dage på kryds og tværs med højt til loftet og fælles, afslappet og spirituelt samvær.

Hun er elsket og respekteret – både i lokalsamfundet og i spirituelle kredse, hvor hun har hjulpet mange gennem indre processer og svære overgange. Hun er kendt for sit nærvær, sin ro og sin omsorg.

“Behandl andre, som du selv ønsker at blive behandlet.”

Det er hendes livsprincip. Og nu er det vores tur til at give hende det samme.

Familien – en historie om modstand og kærlighed

Marianne og hendes mand Anton har stået i stormvejr før.

Da Marianne var 1.5 år, drak hun ved uheld kaustisk soda. Dette skadede hendes spiserør og mavesæk og Marianne var allerede dengang ved at dø og kampen for at overleve tog flere år. Kræften i dag er desværre en senfølge af dette uheld.

Deres førstefødte søn Bernhard døde pludseligt som lille dreng af hjertestop, mens han legede i kolonihaven. Et chok, det forvandlede livet – men ikke tog livsmodet fra dem.

Anton, oprindeligt fra Sydafrika, har kæmpet i over 20 år for at blive i Danmark. Han har arbejdet flittigt og uden pletter på sin vej, alt imens han har skabt et hjem præget af rummelighed, fællesskab og kærlighed.

Sammen har de i dag fire børn: tvillinger på 14, samt børn på 8 og 9 år. De bor på en levende og farverig gård i Sønderjylland, som også danner ramme for Mariannes terapeutiske og helende virke.

Hvad er Immunogenic cell death (ICD) terapi?

Immunogenic cell death (ICD): Denne behandling gives i forbindelse med kemo-/immunterapi i de uger, hvor hun ikke får kemo-/immunterapi.

I stedet for blot at dræbe kræftcellerne "stille", udløser behandlingen alarmsignaler, som får immunsystemet til at reagere så immunsystemet lærer at genkende kræftcellerne og kan derefter selv angribe de resterende kræftceller – også dem, der måtte være spredt til andre steder i kroppen.

Hvad er dendritcelleterapi?

Dendritcelleterapi (DC): Dendritcelleterapi er en form for personlig immunterapi, hvor patientens egne celler udtages, trænes til at genkende kræft, og derefter gives tilbage i kroppen som en målrettet aktivering af immunforsvaret.

Behandlingen er eksperimentel og gives kun på specialiserede klinikker – fx i Tyskland. Den lover ikke mirakler, men de har mange års gode erfaringer med denne behandling. Den første behandling i Europa blev givet til en person med hjernekræft i 2001 af en tysk læge og det gav meget positive resultater. Behandlingen forlænger livet uden at forkorte værdigheden.

Hvad går pengene til?

Vi samler ind til:

* ICD og Dendritcellebehandling på specialiseret klinik i Tyskland

* Transport, ophold og efterforløb

Alle beløb gør en forskel – store som små.

Afslutning

Det her handler ikke om at købe et mirakel.

Det handler om at give et menneske, der har givet alt, muligheden for at vælge at tage kampen op mod denne modbydelige sygdom – med bevidsthed, ro og kærlighed omkring sig.

️ A Hope for Marianne – Campaign to Support Dignified Cancer Treatment ️

Remember that you company also can donate. (see under Contact and Donation)

️ The Purpose of the Campaign

Marianne is 44 years old, and doctors have diagnosed her with advanced cancer. Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma is an aggressive form of cancer which, unfortunately, is in most cases detected late because the cells ‘hide’ themselves. She has been offered life-prolonging chemotherapy and immunotherapy here in Denmark.

Together with her family, she has also chosen to seek other options because the doctors’ terminal diagnosis is unacceptable. To increase her chances of survival, Marianne is seeking additional treatment in Germany. This means that in addition to immunotherapy and chemotherapy at Odense University Hospital, they wish to begin Immunogenic Cell Death (ICD) therapy as well as Dendritic Cell therapy, and also alternative treatments such as intravenous high-dose vitamin C and turmeric infusions.

On June 24, 2025, Marianne underwent surgery for cancer in her esophagus. The doctors were supposed to remove a section of her esophagus because that was where the abnormal cells were found. But when Marianne woke up after surgery, they had removed her entire esophagus, entire stomach, and lymph nodes because they also found cancer there. During the operation, the doctors removed all the cancer they could see, but there is still cancer in the abdomen and on the trachea.

At this time, there is no connection between her mouth and digestive system, so Marianne cannot eat. The only nutrition she can receive is via a feeding tube inserted into her small intestine and a stoma bag on her neck. Despite this, Marianne does not feel the cancer. She still loves life, remains active and grateful to still be here, and currently has no pain. As much as possible, Marianne continues to support a handful of clients and maintains her spiritual lifestyle 110%.

The treatment is given in Germany and is not covered by public healthcare.

That is why we are now fundraising – in the hope of increasing the chances of getting through the cancer journey and giving Marianne hope to live.

‍Who is Marianne?

Marianne has dedicated her life to helping others.

She is a psychotherapist and has previously worked with vulnerable children and young people. Today, she runs her own practice, where she meets her clients with warmth, openness, and respect – often at a reduced price because help should not only be for the few.

The spiritual aspect may be even more important these days. She meditates and receives alternative treatments from friends. In recent years, Marianne has increased her interest in the spiritual field: she facilitates cacao ceremonies, is trained in Reiki, plays crystal singing bowls, and every August hosts a children’s and women’s retreat at her farm. At the women’s retreat, there is everything from ceremonies to happy children playing together for four days – with open hearts, a relaxed atmosphere, and spiritual community.

She is loved and respected – both in her local community and in spiritual circles, where she has helped many through inner processes and difficult transitions. She is known for her presence, her calmness, and her care.

“Treat others as you would like to be treated yourself.”

This is her life principle. And now it is our turn to give the same back to her.

The Family – a Story of Adversity and Love

Marianne and her husband Anton have weathered storms before.

When Marianne was 1.5 years old, she accidentally drank caustic soda. This damaged her esophagus and stomach, and Marianne was close to death back then. The fight for survival lasted several years. The cancer she faces today is unfortunately a late consequence of that accident.

Their firstborn son, Bernhard, suddenly died as a small child from cardiac arrest while playing in the garden. A shock that transformed their lives – but did not take away their will to live.

Anton, originally from South Africa, has fought for over 20 years to stay in Denmark. He has worked hard and without blemishes on his record, all the while creating a home characterized by openness, community, and love.

Together they now have four children: twins aged 14, and two younger children aged 8 and 9.

They live on a lively and colorful farm in Southern Jutland, which also serves as the setting for Marianne’s therapeutic and healing work.

What is Immunogenic Cell Death (ICD) Therapy?

Immunogenic Cell Death (ICD): This treatment is given alongside chemo-immunotherapy during the weeks when she is not receiving chemo-immunotherapy.

Instead of just "silently" killing the cancer cells, the treatment triggers alarm signals that prompt the immune system to react so the immune system learns to recognize the cancer cells and can then attack the remaining cancer cells – including those that may have spread to other parts of the body.

What is Dendritic Cell Therapy?

Dendritic Cell Therapy (DC): Dendritic Cell Therapy is a form of personalized immunotherapy in which the patient’s own cells are extracted, trained to recognize cancer, and then returned to the body as a targeted activation of the immune system.

The treatment is experimental and only offered at specialized clinics – for example, in Germany. It does not promise miracles, but they have many years of positive experience with this treatment. The first treatment in Europe was given to a person with brain cancer in 2001 by a German doctor and produced very positive results. This treatment extends life without diminishing dignity.

What Will the Funds Be Used For?

We are raising funds for:

*ICD and Dendritic Cell treatment at a specialized clinic in Germany

*Transport, accommodation, and follow-up care

Every contribution makes a difference – big or small.
