Marty needs help with his cancer expenses, that he has been incurring since 2009. Below is Marty's story...
Marty Martinson – “Here is my history the past few years. I was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in September of 2009. After 3 months of chemo and radiation I had surgery to remove the tumor from my colon. This surgery left me with an Ileostomy.
During follow up check ups with my oncologist in February of 2012 he discovered a spot on my lung. The biopsy showed it was cancerous. 2 more months of chemo and in May of 2012 I had successful surgery that removed that tumor. 3 more months of chemo.
In September of 2013 I was told that the colon cancer had returned. This cancer was wide spread, and the doctor had to remove my bladder, rectum, part of my colon and a chunk of my tailbone. This was a 20 hour surgery.
While I was rehabbing from this surgery I had a spell where I had lost all of my balance. The doctor had a scan done a discovered a tumor on my brain. On Dec.19, 2013 I had surgery to remove this tumor. Since then I have had radiation treatments to the brain and chemo therapy for my body.”
