Help my wife beat her MS, and see our son grow up.
My name is Joseph Jillings and this is the story of why I am asking a go-fund-me for my wife.
Her name is Marija Jillings and our story goes as follows.
Marija was sick as a child with severe asthma, later in life she got diagnosed with hashimoto and she had obisitas up untill she was 40 years old. Her mom tried every homemade recipe in the book, some of it helped
some did not but, despite everything she was a happy child, enjoying the fruits of friendship and bonds that would last a lifetime.
Both of her parents died in their fifties after a struggle with cancer. Marija lost her dad at the age of seven due to hotchkins, and only 9 years after that her mother passed away.
Her brother and sister took it upon themselves to raise her the way they thought their parents would want her to be raised, and they did a great job.
After a long journey through her life, she met me in the online game called World of warcraft almost 20 years ago, and our lives just connected. We loved the same stuff, found the same puppies cute, you know the standard mushy stuff.
I am from the Netherlands, and she is half Italian, half Montenegrin who lived in Serbia all her life, till that point.
In 2007 we met for the first time at Nikola Tesla airport in Belgrade, where she poked me in the ribs and smiled at me brighter then I have ever seen a human being glow. I knew I was hooked on this girl.
In 2010 she did me the honor of becoming my wife. In my vows I promised her I would make her laugh at least once a day. So far I can say that the mission is a complete succes. That is, untill we started trying for a
baby. Marija had one miscarriage in 2013 and then she had an out of uterus pregnancy which left her with only one fellopian tube and even less of a chance to become something she always wanted to be "a mom...."
Her third pregnancy in 2015. at the age of 37, brought to us our amazing son (who after multiple screenings turned out to have autism), but it also brought the silent disease M.S. (Multiple sclerose).
After four years of bickering and fighting with the established medical community she was diagnosed with the most aggressive form of MS, called Primarily Progressive Multiple Sclerose (PPMS).
This type of MS makes you a bit worse every day. With this disease you look back on your past and think "I was able to do this not 2 months ago" or "I wish I could pick up my child".
On this journey that she and I have set off together on, I have seen her try multiple things in order to get better or to stop the progression, but nothing helped.
In 2020 she discovered Medical Medium. "This guy makes sense!!" I can still hear her say and after reading all the books, she realised that this was the answer for her and our son.
They both started this protocol as much as we could afford financially, and our son showed improvements right away. Marija's MS continued to progress, but much slower and she had some benefits.
As life became more and more expensive and she could afford less and less healthy foods and supplements, she did what every mother would, she stopped taking the supplements so she would have enough for our son.
Due to this MS started progressing faster. She has now at 85% invalidity and can not take care of her self. She had to give up on many things including our evening walks, having quality time with me and our son and also cooking,
which was her biggest passion. She loved cooking meals that were medical medium friendly, and sharing them with the community.
I had to take over everything in the house, and take care of her and our son. I do it with love and pride, but I also have my own ADHD diagnosis, and it is very hard for me to watch the love of my life whilt away.
It was low chance to find my soulmate 2000km away sitting at the same time, playing the same game as me, just for this disease to take her away from me. I will not allow that without the fight of a lifetime.
I am her official caretaker, so I can't work. We live on the paycheck that I receive from the government for being her caretaker, and sadly enough that will never be enough to get her the help she needs in order to get better.
Regardless of all the challenges life has thrown our way, we are a very happy family full of love, going through life undeterred, with smiles on our faces.
Marija and I wanted to have a family so much, and after loosing two babies we were finally blessed with just that. The pregnancy might have also brought MS, but she always repeats that she would do it over and over again
if that was what was needed for her to experience motherhood.
She doesn't have expectations to run again, but she wants to live life with a certain quality to see her boy grow up into a man...
I am starting this fundraiser to collect funds for my wife Marija, so she can buy supplements and healthy foods to follow the Medical medium protocol for her specific diagnosis.
The full protocol with the necessary fresh juices, specific foods for detoxing and supplements in needed quantities, will cost approximately 2.500 euros a month.
She will need to follow these dosages for some time till she heals, and than she can lower it down. She can then first try to stop the progression of her MS and then get better.
In the 3 years of following this lifestyle to the best of our abillities, Marija managed to stay active, but with the progression of MS, this protocol must be administered more intense, or by next year who knows how bad
it will be.
Please help this amazing woman be able to see her boy grow up, and do the most honourable job in the world and that is to be a MOTHER.
Sincerly yours,
Joseph
A word from Marija:
I never could imagine that one day I will be in a wheelchair. When I was young and I could walk, I would look at an invalid and feel sorry, and then I would go on with my life taking my body, health and legs for granted. Here I am today, I can't even get dressed on my own anymore, bathe, or on bad days hold a spoon... And my MS is just progressing taking more and more of me every day. Yes, I am strong... after all, I am my mother's daughter, but also, I lost both parents before the age of 16 which was very traumatic for a young person. I always thought how there are many people in the world that have it worse then me, and there are, but this lady called Multiple sclerose now went too far. Now it is not only about me anymore, it is about my family... And most of all, it's about one person most important in my life. He calls me mom. The other day, he asked me to stay and sit with him at the table. I said I will stay with him till the day I die. "Mommy, you can't die, you are my best friend!' ... and in that moment I realised more than ever that I need to FIGHT, I don't want my son to have the traumatic experience of growing up without his Mom. And here I am doing one more thing that I thought I would never have to do... asking people to help me raise money for my health, so I can be my son's best friend for much longer.
