Donation protected
Hi there. My name is Anthony and I was diagnosed with stage 4 Gist Cancer (gastrointestinal stromical tumor) in 2022.
In July of that year I went in to emergency surgery to have the softball size tumor removed from my stomach and intestines. Unfortunately by then the cancer had already metastasized to my liver and I was given 6 months to live after they realized the cancer had been in my body for 6 years undiagnosed.
I went through 130 days straight of chemotherapy which almost killed me. The chemo turned all of my hair white, caused severe issues with my kidneys and heart causing me to have seizures and mini heart attacks.
January 31st of 2023 they told me that the chemo had made the cancer worse and spread more. That is when I decided to quit chemotherapy and start changing my lifestyle. I started going to the gym even though my energy levels were down significantly. I’ve done several different 3 month trials with diets including vegan, plant based, carnivore, etc. but I found out I am allergic to a lot of vegetables and every diet I tried fed the cancer except the carnivore diet so that is what I have stuck with. I'm now 17 months carnivore and tumors are stable and some are shrinking.
Right now I am not able to work and am having a hard time affording the bills to get to all of my appointments. I have several out of town appointments and even out of state appointments that I need to raise money to make happen.
Furthermore being how chemotherapy almost killed me and the natural approach (the metibolic approach) is extending my life and maken me feel better and cancer is under control, I definitely need help/assistance with continuing the path I'm on!!
To make myself more venerable I'll be 100% honest. The cancer and surgeries (I've had 5 total since 2022) have disabled me for the time being, and the saddest part is that the disability I receive doesn't cover my normal bills let alone all the cancer related stuff.. I'm currently living in a 5th wheel travel trailer because thats the cheapest option i have besides being homeless at this point in time. I use propane to heat, cook with, and to shower with. The propane is 1 of my biggest expense per month (far is winter time goes). P.s for anyone local to Clallam County Washington you can goto Mount Pleasant IGS (Port Angeles) and they have a sheet for me for prepaid propane/diesel for me from those who want to donate local to help!
This metibolic approach has cost me everything financially I've had. I've sold everything I've could that's not important to me or that I don't use on a regular bases. Any help financially or even sharing my story/ go fund me is appreciated!!
Thank you all for your well wishes, positive thoughts, support, shares, prayers, and all the help you all have done for me. I wouldn't be alive still without the support that I've received from every one!!
