Kick Kim's Cancer
Donation protected
In June 2013, Kim had pain in her leg. They chalked it up to a sports injury, a meniscal tear. The pain quickly got unbearable so Kim went for ex-ray. The horrifying news for this super active young woman came as quite a shock...a tumor. They sent her over to the Tom Baker and she started Chemotherapy 5 days later.
Kim had Chemotherapy treatments for 5 months only to hear late October 2013 that her leg would have to be amputated. It would have to be removed from above the right knee. Another hard blow for this very young girl who had lost all her hair, been extreemly sick, could hardly get through the day, and really couldn't do anything for herself.
She had her leg removed and had to continue Chemotherapy treatments for 6 months.
Not only did Kim remain extreemly sick from the chemo, she also had to learn how to function without her leg. A month after surgery Kim was fortunate enough to get a prosthetic leg and started physical rehab right away to learn how to walk with her new leg! She was off to the races in her strong mind even with the struggle of no hair, no driving, no sports, no horseback and all the other "no's"!! Kim looked forward to getting her life back to normal as soon as possible.
It wasn't long tho and Kim got more terrible news...the sarcoma (cancer) had mastastasized (spread) into her lungs. This meant that she had Stage 4 osteosarcoma. She had to undergo lung surgery to remove 6 tumors from her right lung, rest long enough to recover then undergo surgery on her left lung to remove 4 tumors.
After months of healing, Kim was looking forward to this finally being over and was looking forward to getting life back! She had grown her hair, started driving again, got back into horseback riding and started working again!
In this year and a half Kim continued with check ups and dr apps. The Dr. removed some some tissue off her right lung in October 2016 which was a fairly seemless surgery (for what Kim had been through) and she was back to work in 3 days!
In Feb 2017, the doctors wanted to remove more tissue. This surgery didn't go as smooth and everything that could go wrong did. Fluid in the lungs, lung collapsing, bleeding internally, heart weakend...Kim fought hard and got stable enough to be released from hospital! They sent the tissue off to the pathology lab and patiently waited the results. The news was heart breaking. Kims cancer had spread again...into her lymothatic system this time. There are 3 visible tumors as well as microscopic disease. The Doctors and Oncologist told Kim she would have to start Chemotheraly again...
Kim refuses. It didn't heal her before, it wouldn't this time either.
Kim has decided to take a natural approach to healing herself and potentially seeking alternative methods to get rid of this cancer.
Immediately after being diagnosed again Kim started seeing a living food chef/coach, a naturopath doctor and has transitioned to an organic lifestyle. She has shifted her diet to eating raw, living and sprouted foods. She has made all lifestyle changes and adjustments to ensure that she is as healthy and happy as possible.
All funds collected for Kim will go to future alternative health treatments.
Kim will need to move forward with weekly colonic treatments, sacralcranial massages, lymphatic drainage treatments and Natruropath visits. She also will need to purchase equipment to be self sufficient in growing and making her own food at home. She also needs to purchase natural supplements and continue with her already prescribed CBD oil and iodine daily for treatment of tumors still present in her body.
Kims situation is urgent as she is battling against the clock. She would like to explore all alternative options but as a young girl in her mid twenties, funds arent readily available. She has been told that she will get very sick yet and will not be able to work. Your contributions will also help with lost wages.
Kim has a passion for life and a drive to kick this cancer to the curb once and for all!! Any donation will help her fight this fight and keep life as normal as possible.
