In November of 2021 Tony was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. His psa numbers were 259. A normal "high" psa number is 6.
May of 2022 Tony had brachytherapy radiation surgery, 2 weeks later he went through 23 external radiation treatments.
His psa numbers started out very promising in October of 2022. They were .08. He's on hormone therapy, has been for over a year, and the hope was they would keep his psa low to nonexistent... but in January they went up to .17 and now in April they are .77.
So, the cancer is still there. They want to send us back to IU to basically start all over.
We have already spent over $100,000
We believe we need a different approach.
Tony finally started seeing a more natural minded physician and she has done some positive things for him the last 2 months.
My pastor has recommended a brilliant doctor in Carmel. His name is.
Dr. Clifford Fetters.
He is a medical doctor with over 20 years experience but he also has decades of experience with natural and alternative treatments that we feel much more comfortable with.
The negative is that my insurance will only cover about 10 percent of his services!
That means that we will be paying 90 percent out of our pocket.
We are praying for wisdom, we are praying for favor, we are praying for provision and health and life for Tony.
It's extremely humbling to open ourselves up like this. We much rather prefer to be on the giving side, not the receiving end... but we do have a mountain in front of us and we're praying for help getting over it.
Thank you, in advance for praying... and if you feel led to help us...we thank you and pray that God would bless you back 100 fold.
Tony and Christina Minton
