Welcome to Shelby Lushenko's Cancer Treatment Fundraiser web page.

This web site was created for friends and family to make donations to Shelby to help her with medical treatment costs that are not covered by insurance.

Shelby is battling a very serious form of breast cancer and we will need all the assistance that we can generate in order to help Shelby win this battle against cancer.

There is a new treatment called Antineoplastons that have proven effective in treating the kind of cancer that Shelby has. We are attempting to create adequate funds to take Shelby to Houston Texas and have her undergo medical treatment using antineoplastons and low dose chemotherapy.


We have decided to create a fund raiser to help generate the necessary funds to treat this cancer.

Time is very important. The doctor says that the sooner she receives antineoplaston therapy the more successful the treatment will be.

Please take a moment to read Shelby's story and assist us by offering a donation to the PayPal account that we have created for Shelby. We immediately need to raise $5,000 to $10,000 to fly Shelby to Houston Texas to begin the life saving treatments and therapy. The ultimate goal is to reach $50,000 for Shelby's entire treatment. This will be one full year of treatment. We will keep you posted as we attempt to reach our fundraiser goal.

We bless you from the bottom of our hearts!

Hello.

My name is Shelby.


I am 48 years old and the mother of three children, two girls and one boy. Our two girls are going to college and we are raising our 13 year old son. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 25 years.

On April 1, 2009 I was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer. I underwent 10 months of chemotherapy followed by 6 weeks of radiation therapy. I rallied all my strength just to keep undergoing chemotherapy.


After 10 months of treatment they stopped the chemotherapy and I underwent radiation therapy. I became extremely fatigued and in a great deal of pain during radiation therapy but I continued and finished the therapy.

Two years went by and I was doing better. Then I got mysteriously sick and continued to struggle. I saw my doctor and they did a mammogram followed needle biopsies then by a CT scan, MUGA, and a bone scan.


On November 4, 2011 after several biopsies were done, the doctor told me that I had developed a “new breast cancer on the opposite side of my body.” They said that this was "rare" and never happens. Now I am faced with 6 additional months of chemotherapy followed by a bilateral mastectomy.


I was devastated by this news!

They also told me that this cancer aggressive and that I must start a stronger dosage of chemotherapy than I had the first time. This “new cancer” is presently confined to the lymph nodes on the left side of my body.


My husband and I searched for complimentary methods of treatment for this new cancer. John, my husband, discovered Dr. Burzynski and his research on antineoplastons. I believe that I have a chance for a cure or a remission if I see Dr. Burzynski. Antineoplastons therapy provides cancer treatment with low dose chemotherapy which reduces the chances of severe side effects including damage to the heart, developing a blood or other cancer, and a host of other complications. Antineoplastons and their derivatives provide specific targeted therapy for your individual cancer. We would like to team up Dr. Burzynski with our wonderful doctors and nurses here at home.


I am asking for *your help.*



Our insurance will not cover treatments with Dr. Burzynski. We have drained all of our accounts and simply do not have the funds to begin therapy with Dr. Burzynski. I would like to live and watch my family grow and experience the joy of our new grand daughter “Lily.” I just can’t miss this. Our son is only 13 years old and he is very frightened that his mom might not be there for him. I have told him that I will fight this new cancer with all my strength.


We cannot fight this disease without the help and kindness of others.


We invite your *donation* to help us battle this cancer.

God bless you,

Hello Everyone, I thought I should write an update since it has been some time since the last one.
I have had a masectomy and have been started on doxyrubycin and cytoxan chemotherapy. The chemotherapy will be administered every week on Monday. I am feeling very weak from these treatments. We also have had numerous blood studies to try and determine the best way to treat this new cancer. I had a PET scan done recently and there are several "hot spots" on the scan. Recent genetic testing was done. It is very very expensive! but a test that many should consider having done. We are still developing funds to travel to Houston Texas to see Dr. Burznski. More info to follow.... Shelby Lushenko
