Help Doris get the treatments she needs

Donation protected
Dearest beautiful humans...

My name is Glenna.

As many of you know by now my dear mum, Doris was recently diagnosed with a very aggressive and hard to treat brain tumour, Glioblastoma Multiforme.

It has been devastating and shocking and so very unexpected to receive this diagnosis, to face this very dire medical prognosis of 12-18 months and the very limited treatment options offered to her in this country....and yet I haven't given up and continue to remain hopeful in the face of hopelessness.

However unlikely it may be that she can make a recovery from this condition (at least through the narrow lense of the mainstream medical eye) , I have continued to hold onto this thread of hope that she can at the very least prolong and improve her quality of life while also giving her time to get to the root of this disease and for the possibility of actual healing to take place.
I know there is so much more to life and health than the medical doctors allow us to believe so perhaps I just want to give her body the best chance to fight this tumour, to allow for the possibility to heal the underlying causes of this illness and a chance of gaining her life back as much as is possible...

There have been many developments in cancer treatments which have not yet filtered through into the mainstream system within Ireland but which nevertheless are available to us.
These include Dendritic Cell Therapy, a form of immunotherapy that supports the body's immune system to kill the cancerous cells and thereby improve and prolong life. There are also a host of other life enhancing treatments, supplements and protocols which I would like her to avail of including hyperbaric oxygenation, ozone therapy, hydrotherapy, Virotherapy, Asea as well as other supplements and herbs to give her body the maximum chance of survival as well as trauma release work and energetic healing therapies to support her to uncover and the root cause of the development of her condition and allow her body to heal at a deep cellular level.
I am hopeful that treatments such as DCT can give Doris the lifeline she needs right now, to strengthen her body and buy her the time for healing and recovery to take place.

Unfortunately some of these alternative treatments are very costly making them less accessible. Right now I have been quoted €30,000 for a treatment plan including DCT but there will be other costs as she undergoes additional treatments, therapies as well as ongoing costs of nutrition, herbs, supplements etc..

On Wednesday we will be celebrating her 65th birthday.
As a gift to her I would love so much to grant her recent wish of "a long and healthy life" and make it easier to afford and avail of the life enhancing support she needs at this time!

We are grateful for any heartful donations big and small that may bring us closer to making her wishes a reality.

In love and gratitude for your generosity and kindness.

Grá Mór,

Glenna
