Hello all, those who know me, know I was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia in August of 2016. I recieved treatment at UCSF, which included six months of chemotherapy, spinal chemotherapy and radiation, all to get me ready for a stem cell transplant from my little sister Margaret. This gave me two years in remission. During this time many of you supported me here on GoFundMe and many others with kind thoughts and prayers. I am forever grateful for all of you.
However I have relapsed. In October of 2019 I became ill again. I had a major surgery in which they removed my ovaries and fallopian tubes. They also removed much fluid from my abdomen. When they tested the fluids and ovaries, they found the leukemia. I was then treated with chemotherapy. As grateful as
I was for western medicine, I wanted to treat this naturally and told my doctors, I'm done with chemotherapy. That was in October/November. Now here we are in January and the leukemia has flared back up. I am at UCSF now and am going to receive treatment, however I have also reached out to, An Oasis of Healing, a natural treatment center that offers many forms of healing along with low dose chemotherapy.
It is my deepest desire to be treated at a facility that focuses on natural treatments. Since speaking with the doctors at an Oasis of Healing they want $20,000 a week and that seems to be way to much for me to be able to fundraise, especially because this disease gives very little time and I need solutions Now. However they did offer some helpful advice.
I am asking for your help so I can receive treatment from local holistic oncologists. This would be the most reasonable approach considering time and
money. My goal is to try and extend my life as long as possible.
I have also made plans to go on a wheatgrass diet and go fully raw and vegan along with help from the right doctor or doctors.
Armed with knowledge, hope, love, prayers and your financial support it might be possible to extend this
beautiful life I was given. Most importantly I want to watch my children grow, to support them through lifes joy's and struggles.
I'm begging for your help, for me
and my children. I cannot do this without you. When people come together we can do great things. If you are able please donate, if not please say a prayer for me or light a candle and focus some healing energy my way. And please, please, please share far and wide as I will need much love and financial support.
Thank you, from every ounce of my being.
All my love, Mary Hollowwa
