Cancer Relapse, metastasis, Breast Implant Illness

Donation protected
Ten years ago, I had breast cancer. I underwent the most aggressive chemotherapy and bilateral mastectomy with reconstruction. Recently, I was diagnosed with invasive ductal carcinoma and metastatic lymph cancer, and it has spread to other parts of my body. I'm still experiencing the side effects from the chemo. I have experienced a lot of symptoms with the implants but the doctocs didn't believe they were coming from the implants. It's not until recently that the FDA has recognized that, yes, implants can cause a lot of health issues to many of us. And just when I thought I was going to be able to remove them, I had a cncer relapse, metastasis which push the surgery away. But now they found a small rupture on the implants, which means they have to remove them. I have chosen to go with a natural and holistic approach now and surgery of course. Because of my financial situation, which is extremely limited, I am asking people if they can donate money to help me with my expenses. If you find it in your heart and have the means, of course, I will be eternally grateful for all your help. The doctor told me that there was no remedy, but I refuse to accept that. For God is within her, she will not fall. In the meantime, I am focusing on things that nourish my heart and soul and bring me joy, and changing my attitude towards everything.
With a grateful heart,
Ileana
