Marina - Max's mum was diagnosed with melanoma 3 years ago, her treatment was not funded by the government, with help from others she was able to go overseas for the treatments. She was fine after she had a 4 months of treatment in overseas but cancer has come back to her again, this is because of her thyroid problem (that she does not have thyroid gland and she was on T4 replacement therapy, and it stopped working for her, so now she has started a different treatment - T3 and slowly she build up normal level of T3 in her body. After one month of Ivs with Vit C and amigdalina, cancer number dropped again - so she is on the right path, but need money to keep going with IVs. Each IV - $200 dollars and she needs it at least twice a week. Marina had spent all her savings and some money donated by some generous people on her previous overseas treatments. She is now in desperation for more treatments. She and her 15 year old son renting a small 1 bedroom house in Cambridge, they are struggling to pay their date to date living costs and have no money for cancer treatments. Time is running out and she must go overseas for more treatments before it's too late! I really hope the local community and people from overseas can help her and her son Max who is 15 years old, has decided not to go to school and stay home looking after his mum. He doesn't want to see his mum dying. Please save Marina-Max's mum and donate now!
I am involved in this because I know how hard it is when you are not from local and have no family or relatives living in the same country. It also reminds me of my younger sister who is also a single mum and has a son, she was struggling. I help her out from time to time and it does make a big different to her life. But in Marina's case is more traumatic, I can't help her on my own. They also need support from the public.
