Fundraising to get Trish to the Sanoviv Medical Institution in Mexico for Advanced Care for Cancer programme.

Auckland

Kia Ora I’m Mona. I am fundraising to get my Aunty trish to Mexico for Cancer treatment.

She has stage 4 cancer and the funds will secure her a place at the Sanoviv Medical Institution in Mexico for the Advanced Care for Cancer programme. This treatment programme is unfunded and unavailable in New Zealand

The key components for the treatment consists of 3 weeks intensive care 12 hours a day Integrative therapies:

Immunotherapy

Immune modulation

Detoxification

Body nutrient restoration

Chemotherapy (if needed but with supported programme )

At 33 years old she was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer, she was 36 weeks pregnant at the time with my cousin Faelen. She breast feed him for a year and had his little sister Kèva. She also breast feed her for a year. While she was pregnant with Kèva her bone markers rose. When she finished breast feeding Kèva her hormones went crazy and she discovered she had Stage 4 cancer (spread to the bones). In August 2019 she fractured her spine and couldn’t walk properly for a month. At 36 years old, November 2019 she had a double mastectomy, she knew this wouldn’t save her life, but she discovered she had BII (breast implant illness) and needed them out. She fights everyday with an integrating approach, so she can be here for her family. She has been struggling for 5 years with this, putting her family before herself out of fear of being selfish 🥺 yesterday (03/08/21) she found out she has progression extensively to her sternum and ribs and she has a new lesion on her liver. So she needs to get there ASAP ! She just finished 6 months of a drug recommended by her doctors, with severe side affects that did nothing for her.

My Aunty deserves to watch her kids grow. We are doing all we can to get her the funds, but we need a little extra help.

Tentatively BOOKED IN 🙌🏽  20 September 2021

Posted by: Patrisha Waipouri

Kia Ora Whanau, Update: I am tentatively booked into Sanoviv Mexico for the 24th October pending so many challenges right now, ONE being reentry into my own country New Zealand. I am getting all of my ducks in a row and getting my doctors on board to be able to do this efficiently so that I am not stuck in the other side of the world away from my kids. Also holding me back is the fact that my son broke his femur! He is on the mend but none the less a spammer in the works.

I’m getting there! I missed out on booking Managed Isolation room for my return today so my next option is to get supporting documents and request an emergency allocation, this will be a tough one!

Thank you all for donating it means the world to me. If we can keep sharing that would be so helpful.

I have included a little video about Sanoviv foe those interested.

Love & Light to you all Whanau

💕 Trish
