This year I had the best summer of my life by having a chance to spend it with my 8-years-old son in Ibiza. Everything seemed to be too good to be truth even despite some difficulties.
After one month my immune system went down and I was constantly getting sick but I blamed it on work as I was working night time, sometimes also day time and meanwhile enjoying time with my son.
When some gynecological complaints came up, I went to hospital and after 9h of waiting for medical check I was told that I'm ok. It's just an infection and should go to gynecologist to plan my treatment. Meanwhile I did research on my symptoms and by leaving out all the total NO's I was left with only one diagnosis - Cervical Cancer. Soon after I went to private clinic, which was recommended by friend, where after ultrasound check I was told the same and was given prescription for some medicine. Unfortunately there was no improvement at all so I had all the reasons to believe my own research.
At the beginning of October I went back to my country where I went to Oncological clinic and straight away was told that I have 4x4cm tumor which is Stage 2 of Cervical Cancer and as soon as possible have to start treatment.
Despite my own fears, I still kept this all as a secret even from my family and best friends as I know that everyone has their own problems and I never want to make anyones life heavier with worries also about me. I always been going through everything on my own and just when it's over, I could share it with others as there is nothing anymore to worry about. I believed that I should always share just love, happiness and kindness with others.
I was recommended to go to European Institute of Oncology in Milan where instead of one appointment I agreed to stay in Milan longer than planned to do all necessary health checks.
After all it was confirmed that I also have one 2cm long Lymph node which change my cancer Stage from 2nd to 3rd. Team of doctors made my treatment plan which includes 6x weeks of Chemo-radiotherapies and at the end also Brachytherapy. It means that surgery can be avoided.
After two weeks I finally went back home with all the documentations to request S2 form from NHS of Latvia but unfortunately it was denied, what means that I have to cover all those expenses by myself.
It always been low beneath my pride to ask someone for help. Never even requested any child benefits from my country or alimony child support from father of my child but still.. I do my best to make my son to see the world and enjoy the life at its best.
Unfortunately at this moment of my life I can't afford anymore to be proud and stubborn. I have to learn how to chew and swallow it, as now I need your help to save my life before it's too late.
I sincerely thank you in advance for any donation you can make!
