Urgent Cancer Treatment Needs
Donation protected
Ashley is the love of my life and 2017 proved to be the most difficult year for us, when she was diagnosed with metastatic colon cancer. My wife is only 55yrs old and our family hopes to enjoy many memorable years with her in the future. She had a difficult surgery in May 2017, followed up with chemotherapy which has helped her tumour markers come down. Unfortunately the cancer markers started plateauing out and now are going up again.
She has been scheduled to undergo a further operation to resect part of her liver and went through a very gruelling portal vein emobolization procedure which affected her health adversely. I am concerned about her going for a very big surgery at this stage.
There is a remarkable research treatment which is less invasive in the USA, carried out by a well known interventional radiologist, where the liver lesions are treated with cryotherapy and the lesions simulltaneously injected with low dose immune therapy. She is then given systemic immune therapy as needed. The results have been amazing; it is just extremely costly to perform and we are reaching out to try and raise enough money in the next month for Ashley to benefit from this less invasive treatment. Ashley is the kindest most loving person, with such a gentle personality and it would mean the world to us, as a family, if you could contribute to this very worthy cause.
