Help Mari win her fight over cancer
Donation protected
I am a 33-year-old mother of two small boys Oskar (6) and Gustav (3) and wife of a wonderful husband.
I am fighting for my life against cancer in the head and neck region - and I would like to undergo an innovative treatment in renowned oncology German clinic IOZK.
Check out my story and the new treatment which I hope will remove the tumour. It has a total cost of 53.000 €.
Help me win my long battle against cancer.
I am hoping to start the treatment as soon as possible, on the 1st April 2019.
I was first diagnosed with base of tongue cancer caused by human papilloma virus (HPV) back in 2016. Doctors told me there was nothing to worry about that 80% of the cases are easily treatable by 6 weeks of radio chemotherapy which if subsequently received.
The treatment was effective, a lot less scary than I thought, and the tumour disappeared fast. I continued living my life, went back to work, raised my kids until 9 months later during a regular check-up, the tumour was back in the same spot. This time the doctors realised that I was in the 20% of people for whom this disease returns. The best cure this time was decided that half of my base of tongue had to be removed by surgery.
After a long recovery period from the surgery and getting used to the new situation my life continued. I had to re-learn eating and speaking a bit but I could continue my normal life.
But 6 months later my throat started swelling up and the tumour was back again. During spring 2018, I underwent several surgeries where they performed a total pharyngolaryngetomy which means I lost the ability to swallow and speak with my mouth. On top of that I underwent more radiotherapy but the cancer returned just 4 weeks after. I also received the much talked about Nobel prize winning immunotheraphy but again without results.
Now, I have been living with my tumour for the last 9 months. I have changed my diet, exercised, taken my life very easy, used all kinds of alternative medicine options and the tumor has stayed regional.
I would like to undergo the tumour vaccine treatment in German clinic IOZK which has state-of-the-art and innovative solutions creating antibodies to fight cancer from my own blood cells. The initial tests done show potential for promising results. Unfortunately, the cost is very high and my insurance does not cover this.
