Our aunt, Dee, has stage 4 Fallopian tube/ovarian cancer. She received her first diagnosis in May of 2019.

Her cancer journey has included a six-hour surgery to remove a 17 cm tumor, twelve rounds of chemo, and two months of immunotherapy to keep the cancer at bay. Unfortunately, it was not successful and the cancer has returned again.

Her oncologist told her that the cancer cells are “stronger and smarter” than before. The chemo being recommended is very toxic and just “mediocre” in effectiveness. Dee says that although the Lord strengthened her throughout her chemo treatments, she is ready to try a more holistic approach.

Dee’s niece introduced her to one of the holistic centers in Idaho, which offers special programs for cancer patients. To her surprise, the testimonial she watched about this program was of someone in her extended family circle. Through praying and seeking the council of friends and family, she decided to travel from California to Idaho for a two-week intensive program. This alternative medicine approach will include diet change, supplements, time in a hyperbolic chamber, and ozone and light therapies.

Unfortunately, this alternative approach is not covered by insurance and very expensive. They have already invested so much financially into traditional approaches, with cancer coming out ahead so far. Dee is such a fighter with a generous heart. She helped raise her husband’s three children after he lost his first wife to cancer. Jim was also diagnosed with cancer himself about a year and a half before Dee. It has been an extremely rough road for both of them in the past few years but throughout their journey, they have been gratefully aware of the love of God that has been lavished upon them through the outpouring of love, support and encouragement of family, friends and colleagues. In Dee and Jim’s words, “The Lord will supply their needs according to His will”.

We can assume if things progress as they have, Dee has 1-2 years to live. We would like to ask you if you could be a part of her cancer-battling journey and help her meet the financial needs for this treatment. Her entire family and friends can’t imagine losing her. We are supporting her and Jim believing that she will make it through.

Thank you so much for your time to read this.
