This is my 7th trip to Chipsa Hospital in Mexico. I am happy to say that everything is going well for me. I continue to be in remission from Stage 3 metastatic Invasive Ductal Carcinoma with cancer metastasis to several lymph nodes. All of my scans have been clean; and I’m staying on top of my treatments; and continuing my visits to Chipsa; as well as seeing my oncologist every 6 months at the Northwestern Proton Center in Illinois. I have to make the trip to Chipsa every 6 months to pick up medications and check in with my doctors there. I am continuing Apatone which is an oral form of high doses of vitamin C/K and GCMAF shots weekly. GCMAF is a vaccine that triggers white blood cells to fight cancer cells. I am also continuing a vegan diet, with some fish added in. I exercise 6 days a week; and I take immune boosting supplements; and natural hormone supplements.
This trip to Chipsa consisted of 2 full days of treatment: IV vitamin C, ozone therapy, chelation therapy, and the hyperbaric oxygen chamber. I also had an ultrasound done and lab work. All tumor markers were normal and the ultrasound looked good! I will return to Chipsa in 6 months to pick up medications and continue follow up treatments.
Back in Chicago, I have been seeing an Integrative MD who checks bloodwork every 3 months, and advises me on all supplements that I currently take. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism last year; and it was confirmed by my oncologist that it was from radiation damage to the thyroid. I am currently on compounded thyroid medications, free from chemicals; and still in the process of getting my thyroid in control. I have had some chronic fatigue because of this, but it has improved since I have been on the medications. It will just take some time.
I feel very blessed that I chose my own path when it came to cancer treatment. I am living life to its fullest and pursuing all of my dreams. If I would have followed the traditional route, I would be paralyzed and on disability. I have an amazing, beautiful son. I pursued my dream of owning a vet clinic. When I was first diagnosed with cancer in October 2021, I was in the process of opening a start up vet clinic in Frankfort, IL. I already invested a ton of money and work into it; but I needed to concentrate on my health and beating cancer. I took the loss and walked away from the clinic. Fast forward, and the opportunity of owning a vet clinic presented itself to me last year. What’s crazy is the clinic is in Frankfort ,IL. I’m very blessed to have wonderful family, friends, and animals. I continue to have a strong Faith in God. God gives us trials, and we may not understand them, but we must have Faith to get us through those trials. Every night, I say a prayer to Saint Peregrine, the patron of all Cancers. My hope is that by sharing my journey, I can help others who are in this battle.
Let us give thanks to our Lord!
You remain in our thoughts (Grandpa, Uncle Michael, me) and we are grateful for your continued good health.
