Over the past year, my list of limitations has grown considerably. Attacks have begun to occur, followed by I have vision, speech and movement disorders. The headaches, unless I'm on painkillers, don't go away. It's become very difficult to function independently. Even going shopping involves the risk of losing balance and falling, which has happened several times. There are still dozens of tumors in my head, and their presence is felt more and more.
Unfortunately, I have run out of targeted chemotherapy treatment options. Doctors are proposing another radiotherapy, which does not guarantee effectiveness, and with a swelling of this size, it can end tragically. So I am forced to look for alternative treatment methods in private clinics, which offer greater freedom of action and a more individual approach to the patient. Unfortunately, these are very expensive therapies. The disease manifests itself at every stage of my life, so I am looking for every way to help myself.
A year ago I dreamed of getting back into shape so I could go hiking with my husband again, like in the old, healthy days. Now My desire is simply to function normally without fear.
I will be extremely grateful for any help, even the smallest. Thanks in advance to all donors for their support.
Dream:
My name is Daria and I will be 25 in May. My life changed on February 25, 2022, when I found out I had breast cancer. It was a shock for me. Few 22-year-olds expect such a sudden and serious illness, especially since there are no similar cases in the family. It happened just before the defense of my engineering thesis, when I was doing my first internship in the profession. I started living on my own and everything seemed to be falling into place. Suddenly my organized world collapsed in an instant.
Then everything happened very quickly. The biopsy results showed that this is it hormonally negative cancer, HER 2 positive, very aggressive and developing quickly. Unfortunately, imaging tests showed numerous, inoperable metastases to the liver and bones. Then I heard the worst words in my life: "You are a palliative patient, we cannot cure you", but I still believed in a miracle. I underwent chemotherapy, I worked, I lived. I felt apparent peace until January 2023, when two more tumors appeared in my breast, even more aggressive than the original one. Thanks to the doctors' quick decision, I underwent a total mastectomy, which made me think that everything would be fine. However, March 2023 showed me how much pain I can endure. The cancer metastasized to the brain. The list of neurological symptoms was long. I know I spent that month, but I remember very little about it. After further tests, I received another type of chemotherapy, whole brain irradiation and several cyberknife treatments. I completed the last 3 in January this year. All these actions helped, but only for a while. There are still dozens of tumors in my head and unfortunately I feel them more and more.
I am running out of targeted chemotherapy treatment options. I am forced to look for other expensive solutions to be able to live. It is extremely difficult to share such a part of your life, but at this stage it is necessary. I can't cope on my own.
My biggest dream is to wake up as a fit person. I would like to be able to walk in the mountains with my husband like in the old, healthy days.
I will be very grateful for any help, even the smallest. Thank you in advance to all donors.
