Help Tom in the Fight for his Life

Here's my story...
==============

So now that I have been given 3 to 6 months to live by my
neuro-oncologist -- probably more like 3 months judging the tumor load in my head -- I literally asked him quite directly: "I want better
options." My best option that he could provide was access to a drug
called carboplatin so that's what I chose. Now, I'm suffering the
side-effects of that choice: fatigue, nose bleeds, lowered immune
response, etc. Basically, I've poisoned myself in the hope that it
will make a difference in my battle against cancer.

"I want better options."

Now here's were things gets a little nutty -- so hang in there with me.

If my doctors knew about a therapy that repairs one's brain while it
potentially could cure me of cancer, wouldn't you say something about
it. Nope, I guess not. However when I called to ask if Kaiser would
cover it, I was told "someone else had already tried and was
rejected." So basically, they knew.

That therapy is Hyperbaric Medicine. There is an experimental protocol for GBM (the type of primary brain tumor that I have): eight weeks of being expose to 2.4 atmospheres (ATA) of oxygen. I am receiving palliative care at SFIHM.

I started HBO therapy last week but only 1.5 ATA due to my risk of
seizures -- eventually we'll work our way to the protocol of 2.4 ATA. I
got such a strong immune response after just one treatment, I thought that if I'm getting some benefit from 1.5ATA I wondered how powerful 2.4ATA would be. Unfortunately, I couldn't pop my ears after my first treatment; so I put tubes it them the following Wednesday morning. By Wednesday afternoon, I had reached my treatment level with zero discomfort!

By exposing my body to 2.4 ATA, in theory, wakes up the cancers'
innate suicide programming. Which seemed to work, just after 1
treatment. The body will also regrow, repair, regenerate any damage
the brain has encountered after two surgeries via stimulating stem
cell production.

The only problem is the cost. It's expensive at $250 for 90min
sessions and my only option is to pay "out of pocket". So far I've
purchased only 10 days on my own - I need at least 40 days of therapy at 2.4ATA, probably more 'cuz I still at 1.5ATA. Thus, these
treatments could easily drain my bank account. So here's where I'm
going to hit my readership up for money:
