My fight against cancer
Hello,
I have been navigating a difficult health journey after being diagnosed with Stage IV Myxoid Liposarcoma in July 2024. At only 53 years of age, my life expectancy is 2 to 3 years. I have completed six rounds of chemotherapy and fifteen radiation sessions. While I am eternally grateful for these traditional treatments, I have learned that my healing process might benefit from exploring a broader range of options.
I am a mom with three amazing kids, the youngest being just 15 years old. My hope is to see her graduate from high school and move on to college or university. I also look forward to seeing my kids get married and potentially start families of their own. Above all, I want to have many more years to celebrate their achievements and be there for them every step of the way.
After much reflection, I have made the decision to explore integrative and alternative cancer therapies available at Hope 4 Cancer in Mexico. They have been operating for over 20 years and specialize in helping people with stage IV cancers. This could offer me a new path to healing. Their alternative therapies have helped countless individuals find relief and recovery when other options were exhausted.
I am seeking your support to help fund this treatment as it is extremely expensive.
My treatment costs have been estimated at $47,900 US. This includes all tests, a 23 day stay, with therapies occurring 6 to 8 hours per day, and continued support at home with 2 follow up visits to the center. Your generous donations will go directly toward healing treatments, and care throughout this journey.
Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will help me take this crucial step toward improving my health and well-being.
This is a big step, but I genuinely believe that exploring these alternative therapies could lead to the healing I need. Anyine who knows me well knows that it is not easy for me to ask for help.
Thank you for being part of this important chapter of my life. I am deeply grateful for your generosity, kindness, and belief in my healing.
With love and gratitude,
Christine

Hi everyone,
First off, thank you so much to those who have so generously donated. It means the world to me and the kids!
The orthopedic surgeon will operate! I will be having a tumor resection on March 17th. This will remove the large tumor in my leg. Excited, nervous (terrified) but ready for it. Once that is healed, I hope to be able to make the trip to Hope 4 Cancer in Mexico.
Please continue to pray and share my campaign. An update will follow post surgery.

Update #1
February 22nd, 2025
I saw my medical oncologist on Feb. 11 to discuss latest scans. The main tumour and two mets have decreased in size and one is stable. I see the orthopedic surgeon on Feb. 27 to determine if surgery is an option to remove the large tumor in my leg. If surgery is not an option at this time, I may have to start more chemotherapy sessions until I can get to Mexico. My wish is to get to Hope 4 Cancer sooner than later so that I can fight this cancer in a more holistic way. I have to throw everything I can at this disease.
Thank you for your support and prayers!
