Megan Cavel hasn't added a story.
Hello!
(Traduction en français en bas de texte anglais)
For those of you who don't know me, I am Claire's niece Megan, we are launching this fundraiser for our beloved Claire.
Claire was recently diagnosed with ovarian cancer that has spread to her liver. This news has left Claire and all who know her in utter shock. As many of you are aware, Claire leads an incredibly healthy lifestyle, generously gives of herself, and rarely experiences illness! She is not one to ask for much at all. We believe that by creating this funding campaign, we can offer her the best support during this challenging time, bringing our community together around her.
Claire's profession revolves around healing others through Ayurvedic massages and treatments. Unfortunately, at this moment, she is unable to continue her work, as it is now time for her to focus on her own healing journey.
Claire and her oncologist believe her best chance of overcoming this illness lies in a combination of conventional and complementary medicine protocols, some of which will not be covered by her health insurance.
Already, she has begun some of these complementary treatments designed to prepare her body to cope with chemotherapy effectively. These therapies have started yielding benefits for her. However, they require regular visits to an Integrative Medical Doctor and an oncologist in Paris, which entails train travel, overnight accommodation, as well as trips to a clinic in Belgium for treatments that are not available in France.
At present, we do not know how long these treatments will be required; this is just the beginning of her journey. We will keep you updated on her progress and any related costs as more information becomes available.
We understand that many of you are eager to support Claire, as she is cherished by so many. We know that if we all lend her support. Every contribution, no matter how small, will bring Claire closer to the care she needs. If you cannot donate, we would greatly appreciate it if you could share this campaign with your friends and family.
We genuinely hope that Claire and Mikee will feel relieved from financial stress in addition to the uncertainties surrounding her health.
Thank you from the depths of our hearts for standing by Claire during this time!

Pour ceux d'entre vous qui ne me conaissent pas, je suis la niece de Claire, nous créons cette collecte de fonds pour notre adorable Claire.
Claire a récemment reçu un diagnostic de cancer de l’ovaire qui s’est propagé à son foie. Cela a été un choc complet pour Claire et pour tous ceux qui la connaissent. Comme beaucoup d’entre vous le savent, Claire mène un mode de vie très sain, se donne généreusement et de tout son cœur, et n’est jamais malade! En général, elle ne demande pas grande-chose, mais c’est notre moment de lui rendre la pareille, pour l’aider à traverser cette période extrêmement difficile et rassembler la communauté autour d’elle.
Claire gagne sa vie en soignant les autres grâce à des massages et des traitements ayurvédiques. Malheureusement, à ce moment, elle n’est pas en mesure de continuer son travail, car le temps est venu pour elle de se concentrer sur son propre processus de guérison.
Claire et son oncologue croient que sa meilleure chance de surmonter cette maladie difficile est d’entreprendre une combinaison de traitements conventionnels et complémentaires, dont certains ne seront pas couverts par son assurance maladie.
Certains de ces traitements complémentaires lui préparent son corps à la chimiothérapie, et la rendront plus efficace. Ils ont déjà débuté et elle en ressent des bienfaits. Cependant, cela implique des déplacements réguliers chez un médecin de médecine intégrative et un oncologue à Paris, nécessitant des voyages en train, des nuitées et également des déplacements en Belgique pour des traitements indisponibles en France.
Pour le moment, nous n’avons aucune idée de la durée de ces traitements, ce n’est que le début de son parcours. Nous vous tiendrons informés dès que nous aurons plus d’informations.
Nous savons que beaucoup d’entre vous se demanderont comment soutenir Claire, car elle a de nombreuses personnes qui l’aiment. Nous avons pensé que c’était le meilleur endroit où la communauté pouvait se rassembler pour la soutenir. Chaque don, aussi petit soit-il, rapprochera Claire des soins dont elle a besoin.
Si vous ne pouvez pas faire de don, nous apprécierions que vous partagiez cela avec vos amis et votre famille.
Nous aimerions qu’elle et Mikee ne soient pas stressés financièrement en plus de l’incertitude autour de sa santé.
Merci du fond du cœur de soutenir Claire pendant cette période!
Update 8 March
Claire has now had several sessions with her Doctor of Integrative Medicine, which have significantly helped prepare her body for her first chemotherapy session. She has received the results back from her RGCC test, which have identified the chemotherapy that will work best for her specific cancer type, which is complex, as well as the plant medicines that will aid in weakening the cancer cells. These are very positive developments. Her first chemotherapy session took place on 5th March, and she is feeling okay after what was a significant step for her. She is following a Ketogenic Diet, eliminating all sugars and carbohydrates, which will also help weaken the cancer cells, and is doing her best to maintain her fitness and health at this time.
Claire a maintenant eu plusieurs séances avec son docteur en médecine intégrative, qui ont considérablement aidé à préparer son corps pour sa première séance de chimiothérapie. Elle a reçu les résultats de son test RGCC, qui ont permis d'identifier la chimiothérapie la plus efficace pour son type de cancer spécifique, qui est complexe, ainsi que les plantes médicinales qui l'aideront à affaiblir les cellules cancéreuses. Il s'agit là de développements très positifs. Sa première séance de chimiothérapie a eu lieu le 5 mars et elle se sent bien après cette étape importante pour elle. Elle suit un régime Ketogenic, éliminant tous les sucres et les glucides, ce qui contribuera également à affaiblir les cellules cancéreuses, et fait de son mieux pour rester en forme et maintenir sa santé dans la meilleur état possible.
Update 20 March
Claire has now had her PAC implant installed which will enable her to receive her chemotherapy via a pump rather than directly into the vein which means she only has to be in the hospital for a few hours each time. Her 2nd chemotherapy session was yesterday. She is continuing her booster sessions with Doctor and will be going to Belgium next week for her first two Ozone therapy sessions to help oxygenate her blood which not only makes the chemotherapy more effective but will help her with the secondary affects of the chemotherapy.
Claire a maintenant reçu son implant PAC qui lui permettra de recevoir sa chimiothérapie via une pompe plutôt que directement dans la veine, ce qui signifie qu'elle ne doit rester à l'hôpital que quelques heures à chaque fois. Sa deuxième séance de chimiothérapie a eu lieu hier. Elle continue les séances avec le docteur de médecin integrative pour booster sa système immunitaire et se rendra en Belgique la semaine prochaine pour ses deux premières séances d'ozonothérapie afin d'aider à oxygéner son sang, ce qui non seulement rend la chimiothérapie plus efficace mais l'aide à combattre les effets secondaires de la chimiothérapie.

Hi, Claire here, thank you all so much who have donated, thanks to you I have been for my first two Ozone Therapy sessions in La Hulpe, and will be able to continue to visit the clinic. I was accompanied by my amazing friend Sarah who looked after me, insisted on carrying my suitcase up all the stairways, cooked for me and kept me smiling. The team at Ozone 2000 are lovely and made me feel very at ease. The therapy went really well due to my "excellent veins"! and the fact that my blood flows so well, thanks to the supplements I have been taking. A couple of small side affects after the treatment which is understandable as it gets rid of the old blood cells and detoxes the body but generally I feel more energized and that will continue to increase. I really am so grateful to everyone for their heartfelt messages of support which are so important to me and Mikee.
Hello, c'est Claire, merci à tous ceux qui ont fait des dons, grâce à vous j'ai pu bénéficier de mes deux premières séances d'ozonothérapie à La Hulpe, et je vais pouvoir continuer à me rendre à la clinique. J'étais accompagnée par ma formidable amie Sarah qui s'est occupée de moi, a insisté pour porter ma valise dans tous les escaliers, a cuisiné pour moi et m'a permis de garder le sourire. L'équipe d'Ozone 2000 est adorable et m'a mise à l'aise. La thérapie s'est très bien déroulée grâce à mes « excellentes veines » ! et au fait que mon sang circule très bien, grâce aux suppléments que je prends. Quelques petits effets secondaires après le traitement, ce qui est compréhensible puisqu'il permet de se débarrasser des vieilles cellules sanguines et de désintoxiquer le corps, mais en général, je me sens plus énergique et cela va continuer à augmenter. Je suis vraiment très reconnaissante à tout le monde pour leurs messages de soutien sincères qui sont si importants pour moi et Mikee.
