Help Mark Heal From Brain Cancer

Donation protected
As you likely well know, MARK SZULGIT is no garden variety earthling! He's a world traveler, part west county farmer, part Ice-hotelier and FULL ON outside-the-box artist. He's a kind-hearted, mystical soul, who's always loved exploring uncharted territory, performance art, and creating sculptures of snow, ice and metal. http://www.markszulgit.com/

AND he was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 glioblastoma brain cancer, which is inoperable due to its size and location in his brain. He had a traumatic seizure in mid-March, resulting in an emergency ambulance trip to the hospital, and several trips back & forth the following two weeks. Currently, his options with Kaiser are chemo and radiation so he's chosen to explore alternative medications/treatment options from herbalists, naturopaths, healers, and friends from Sonoma County, Nevada and/or Mexico. 

The situation is sudden and overwhelming, unfolding at both a snail's pace and very rapidly. He's surrounded by an amazing network of friends bathing him in unconditional LOVE. We're ready to do whatever it takes to kick this tumor's ass and keep Mark's spirits high. We got this! 

AND we can use all the support we can get! With all the unexpected and mounting medical bills, 100% organic Ketogenic diet, alternative therapies (acupuncture/massage), vitamins & immune strengthening supplements, in-patient clinical stays, travel & housing costs... we need everyone's help. A fraction of this is covered by Mark's insurance, but the majority of these expensive medical treatments and living expenses are coming directly out of Mark's pocket and since the seizure he's on disability. We all want to see him released of this stress as he embarks on this healing journey. 

Mark's plan is to:
- continue his weekly accuptuncture and integrative medicine treamtents in Santa Rosa to aid in symptom reduction and wellness (~$2000/wk)
- visit and hopefully become a patient at Reno Integrated Heath Center “Boot Camp" that provide all-encompassing alternative healing treatments ($22,788.79 program)
- OR at  Hope for Cancer in Mexico (similar costs to Reno "Boot Camp")
- return to Sweden to visit his house, family, and put various affairs in order
- and he dreams of doing a marble carving workshop in Colorado
- and other adventures

Rest assured, Mark is surrounded by dedicated caregivers. We're approaching one day at a time with a sense of gratitude, carpe diem, nutritional support, love, love, and more love! THANK YOU in advance for any financial and/or emotional contribution you're able to offer. Thanks for your prayers, transmitting healing vibes, keeping the energetic frequency high, and whatever good mojo you're personally able to send Mark's way! 

Mark's deeply touched and extremely grateful for the abundance of help he's been showered with thus far. Now let's expand that and keep the momentum going together! Each and every generous donation, whether large or small, will make an enormous difference along Mark's healing path.  

To ease the disbursing of funds for the many different expenses for Mark's care, we have made Eric Szulgit, Mark's brother, the beneficiary.
