SHORT VERSION:
I NEED $250,000 to save my life. I have terminal late stage triple negative breast cancer.
I want to watch my kids grow up and marry and I want to grow old with the love of my life Jerod.
I never thought in a million years, this would happen to me. My doctors are astounded I am still alive.
The LIFE SAVING treatment AAIT is where they draw out my blood, grow my natural killer cells into billions and then put it back in my body and let them do their job.
LONG VERSION:
If you know me, you know that I am a natural health FREAK! :) My husband and I have been in the realm of all things “Natural and Alternative” for the past 20 years. We have taught 100s of people as best we can about how to live their healthiest life. Nutrition is our strong point and it’s also our passion. In spite of all of this, my own body decided that was not enough to stay healthy. I am still learning, but there is a giant spiritual component here. To all of you moms and dads out there who are pushing it to the max at both ends-please listen to me. I told my patients so often, YOU MUST COME FIRST. If you are the one who takes care of everyone in your life, and you don’t take care of yourself, if you start to go downhill-who is left to take care of YOU? I thought I could do it all. Multiple businesses, kids, constant “going” at FULL SPEED. I know now, looking back, that my body was asking for rest and I was not delivering. I actually knew I had “something” going on for almost 10 years. Because things have taken a turn down a troublesome path, we decided it’s probably best to let people know. My pride has been in the way (for sure) as I wanted to keep myself and my problems to myself. I kept telling myself, no one needs or wants to know what I have going on, PLUS, I’m the one teaching how to avoid all of this! So for a long time we kept silent, and we had no issues. Shortly after having Amos (baby #3), I found a lump in my breast. I have always had very fibrocystic breasts and even at 16 had a biopsy on one of the areas of suspicion. It was benign then. I have been doing my due diligence to carefully watch estrogen and keep my hormones in check because of this history. Of course my diet and lifestyle have been 100% “perfect” (insert eyeroll as eating fully organic with zero sugar is NOT enough). When I found the lump after Amos, I wasn’t too concerned. It seemed fibrous as well. We kept track of thermography and blood work and everything was fine and stabile. 3 years ago though, something shifted. I decided to run an oncoblot test (unfortunately this test is no longer available) as something seemed different. It was positive for breast cancer. So we started consulting with several integrative oncologists, naturopaths, nutritionists, etc and it seemed like the best option at the time was to have High Intensity Focused Ultrasound done to obliterate the lump. The only place that would do it without a biopsy report or mammogram was in India. Prior to that trip I travelled to Montana to get a 3T MRI which was inconclusive, and to California for a 3D breast ultrasound which showed only slight concern. The HIFU procedure was the most painful thing I have ever been through in my entire life. Much worse than childbirth. But it did burn the lump from the inside out. I am now left with a giant area of scar tissue, but that’s all. While in India, they were using a very high tech ultrasound machine and found a smaller lump on the opposite side. They thought of doing more HIFU at that time on this other lump, but the specialist came in and said it was “just a cyst” and nothing at all to worry about. I was relieved as I did not want to go through that amount of pain again!!!
So that all happened on my 40th birthday. From then until this past Christmas eve, everything seemed to be ok. We kept very close tabs on the “cyst”, and continued to watch thermography and bloodwork. Once our darling little surprise baby Axxl came along, my hormones obviously had a massive shift. Unfortunately the cyst decided to change soon after he started breastfeeding. Since all of the bloodwork and therms were still looking fine, we just kept going with life. I decided to have an IvyGene test to see if the changes I noticed were going in the wrong direction and it showed just slightly over the positive mark for cancer. So I ramped up my diet, juicing, exercise, supplements, IV therapies, etc to see if I could get a change. Unfortunately I was not making good progress. In fact the lump was now growing at a high rate of speed. Lymph nodes now involved as well. My integrative oncologist in Mankato, MN told me to keep breast feeding as the prolactin would be protective for me. But I have a feeling it may have had the opposite effect. So this Christmas Eve I got additional bloodwork back that showed my tumor markers climbing. We tried to hide our stress and worry from the family, but I’m pretty sure everyone could tell something was wrong. Working with another integrative oncologist, we bumped up our IV schedule, shifted the diet again, and made some additional changes, but unfortunately the numbers only got worse. They have doubled in fact each month since Christmas 2019.
So that brings me to the MFIT therapy (Mistletoe Fever Induction therapy). I worked with a doctor in Atlanta (the only one in the US) doing MFIT. He is having really great success with his breast cancer patients and I actually got really lucky to get in. I had the first round of IV, subcutaneous injections, and intra-tumoral injections. That was the easy part. Feeling like you have the worst flu of your life for days after is the hard part. I continued the MFIT for 8 weeks but unfortunately, my situation still got worse. We knew we needed more help at this point. Off to Canada for a new treatment we went! This was a full mind/body/spirit deep dive. What I found out here was that my spirit was diminished and that emotionally I had a hard time letting people “in”. Up until now, even much of our immediate family didn’t know what we were dealing with. My intention was to change this issue and start to let people in. I’m working on it! I am not the type of person who likes or wants any “help”, or especially anyone feeling sorry for me. But because cancer is a whole human thing, I need to address the side of me that just wants to hide and retreat.
We have investigated deeply in regard to “why” this happened to me and it all points to a naturally high estrogen load (fibrocystic breasts), birth control pill use as a 17-20 year old prescribed for “harsh” periods (wow do I wish I could take that back!) with the addition of a double vaccination in the military (because they lost my shot record, I had about 5 vaccines given to me twice in the same period) all at the same time as the BCP. This ended up being the perfect storm waiting to happen. The pregnancies shot the hormones up even higher and that’s all it took.
This brings me to Envita. Oddly enough we have been working along with this clinic for quite some time with mutual Lyme patients. They are wizards at Lyme disease and they have been a great ally for us and our clinic. We had no idea they actually specialized in “cotton balls” as I like to call it…so much less invasive sounding! After conversing with them, we were sure this was our best option along with starting our own frequency treatments (more on this later). So far we have started with the low dose genetically targeted chemotherapy (we call it caramel therapy-gotta keep those mind triggers at bay). They lower the blood sugar to the 40s and tag the caramel with glucose so that the cotton ball cells as greedy as they are, gobble up the sugar tagged caramel. Next is targeted brain radiation, and after that something called AAIT. I will be sent to Mexico for this part as it is still illegal in the US. They will draw out quite a bit of my blood and then over 3-4 weeks clone/grow my natural killer cells into the billions. Once cultivated, they will inject them back into my body and let them do their job. It truly is brilliant.
The day to day is extremely challenging to be honest, lots of ups and downs and it’s minute to minute. But along with my positive prayer warriors, and cutting edge radionics practitioners and distance testing GURU extraordinaire, I got this. I feel it in my bones. I WILL beat the odds with God as my strength. My doctor told me I have already lived passed my “prognosis”…thanks I guess? All that means is I’ve gotten this far and there’s no turning back. So many people need the info and I can’t get there by going around it-only through the fire. I am asking for your prayers and I am so grateful for them. May you be blessed beyond measure.
