From 50% shrinkage to a new fight — and why I need your help to finish this.

On March 3rd, 2025 at 2:17 pm MT, lying in an MRI machine at Ogden Regional Medical Center, I heard the words no one wants to hear:

"You have a growth on your brainstem."

My name is Nate "Anaez" Zeleznick. I'm a wellness coach, breathwork teacher, and the 2024 U.S. Wellness Coach of the Year. I've spent over 38,000 hours teaching others how to heal their bodies and minds. And in that MRI machine, I made a promise to myself:

I am going to heal this. Fully.

What I did next — and what happened:

Over the summer of 2025, working with an exceptional medical team (including metabolic oncologists, pioneers in PPT VSEL stem cell therapy, and specialists at the University of Utah Huntsman Cancer Institute), I built an integrative protocol:

Hospital-grade Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)

Targeted nutritional and supplementation strategy

PPT VSEL stem cell therapy with laser guidance

Advanced breathwork, meditation, and nervous system work

Deep biological testing and decoding

In five weeks, my tumor shrank by over 50% and my blood pressure normalized. Within 6 months I released 90 lbs. Every major blood marker moved into optimal range. My biological age reversed by 22 years! I felt — and still feel — more alive than I have in my entire life.

My body responded. Powerfully. The protocol works.

The setback — and why I'm here:

Recent follow-up imaging shows the growth has begun increasing in size again. My team and I are adjusting the protocol so the cells can't adapt — but to keep going, I need resources I no longer have.

The symptoms have returned and intensified:

Severe vertigo that makes walking or standing unsafe

Double vision that prevents driving, reading, or extended screen work

Facial numbness and right-side weakness that steal my independence daily

Constant fatigue that has cut my ability to work to short, supported sessions from home

I can no longer drive. I can no longer travel to teach. The income that funded my first $40,000 of treatment is gone. And the stress of carrying this alone is exactly the kind of stress my body cannot afford while it's trying to heal.

What your support will fund — the real numbers:

My urgent need is 6 months of uninterrupted treatment and basic stability so my body can do what it's already proven it can do.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) — ~$52,000

Hospital-grade HBOT at clinical pressure (insurance doesn't cover it for my condition). 5 sessions/week at $400–$500 per session for 6 months. Non-negotiable per my metabolic oncologists.

Supplements & Integrative Therapies — ~$18,000

$3,000/month for 6 months: targeted supplementation, lab testing, and supportive therapies that keep my immune system, nervous system, and detox pathways working.

Basic Living Expenses — ~$15,000

$2,500/month for 6 months: housing, food, utilities. Because I can't work full-time, healing requires a foundation I currently can't provide for myself.

Treatment Buffer & Imaging — ~$35,000

Additional HBOT as needed, follow-up MRIs, protocol adjustments, and unforeseen costs. Adaptive tumors require adaptive care.

Total: $120,000 for 6 months of real healing.

I've already invested over $40,000 of my own money in 2025 on treatments, imaging, and protocols. I've gone as far as I can on my own.

⏰ The urgency is real

If I can't cover the next 3 months, I have to stop treatment. Stopping now means losing the momentum we've built — and giving the tumor the opening to keep progressing.

This is the window. Right now.

Who I am — and why this work matters beyond me

Before this diagnosis, I'd spent my life helping others reclaim their health:

Creator of the Integrated Ascension Method (I AM) and co-founder of Ascended Living

Co-founder of Vibravision and MP USA, Inc. Supporting advancement in perceptive abilities for the blind as well as operating the largest Indonesian martial arts and wellness academy in America.

U.S. Wellness Coach of the Year — 2024 FORTTUNA Global Excellence Awards

Health 2.0 Visionaries Award recipient (Dubai)

38,000+ hours teaching breathwork, meditation, and integrative wellness

One of my students — a big-wave surfer who spent 70 days on a ventilator fighting COVID — told me my breathwork was the first time he could breathe normally again. He's back surfing the world. That's one of hundreds of stories.

I've spent my life helping people. For the first time, I'm the one asking.

What you get when you donate:

I never want this to feel like a one-way street.

Every donor is invited to a monthly live Zoom breathwork & meditation session with me — the same practices that have carried me (and thousands of others) through our hardest moments. Sessions are recorded so you can return to them anytime.

You'll also receive regular updates here: how I'm feeling, what phase of treatment I'm in, wins (no matter how small), and honest reflections from this journey.

Three ways to help — today

Donate any amount. $25 covers a week of supplements. $500 covers a single HBOT session. $2,500 covers a month of living expenses. Truly — $10 matters.

Share this campaign. Post it to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, your group chats.

One share from you reaches networks I never could. The wellness, biohacking, breathwork, and integrative medicine communities especially — this is our fight too.

Hold the vision. Prayer, intention, good energy — I feel every bit of it.

To every person who has already given:

264 of you chose to believe in me before I even knew how to ask. I read every name. I read every message. On the nights when the vertigo won't let me sleep, I think about that — and I find one more ounce of strength.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

From my heart — and from the future version of me who is already fully healed —
