Yesterday marked a powerful step forward in my healing journey. I received my very first High Dose IV Vitamin C (HDIVC) infusion at The Drip Bar in Edina, MN. I’m grateful to say my body tolerated it well. From here, I’ll receive these infusions twice a week for the next 12 to 16 weeks, in conjunction with my immunotherapy treatments with Keytruda at HealthPartners Hospital. None of this would be possible without you.
The goal is in sight.
To everyone who has donated, shared my story, or kept me in your prayers, thank you. Truly. Your generosity is making this treatment possible. Every dollar you’ve given is going directly toward the cost of these infusions and medical debt. We’ve reached 37 percent of our goal, and I believe in my heart we can reach 100 percent together. gofund.me/162d7320
What is HDIVC, and why does it matter?
High Dose IV Vitamin C isn’t your typical supplement. Delivered directly into the bloodstream in therapeutic concentrations, it becomes something far more powerful. At these levels, it produces hydrogen peroxide in the space outside cells, a stress cancer cells can’t handle. Healthy cells, on the other hand, are left mostly unharmed thanks to their stronger defenses. This isn’t just a vitamin drip; it’s a targeted strike, and unlike chemotherapy, it doesn’t destroy everything in its path. It strengthens instead of weakening. It heals without tearing me down.
How is this different from chemotherapy?
Chemo is brutal. It affects both healthy and unhealthy cells, leading to exhaustion, nausea, hair loss, and a weakened immune system. HDIVC takes a different route. It creates an environment hostile to cancer cells, while sparing the rest of the body. The side effects are minimal. The hope is enormous.
Why both Keytruda and HDIVC?
Because my cancer has spread to my lungs, it’s now systemic, circulating through my blood, hiding in my body. Keytruda trains my immune system to find and attack it. HDIVC supports this fight by weakening the cancer’s ability to survive oxidative stress. Together, they’re my best chance to win this battle.
What else am I doing?
I’ve gone all in. I’m following a strict Carnivore diet, no sugar, no carbs, because cancer feeds on sugar, and I’m starving it. I’m also taking higher doses of zinc, magnesium, vitamin D, and ivermectin, as part of my strategy. Zinc enhances T cell function, supports DNA repair, and reduces inflammation. Magnesium fuels energy production, supports detoxification, and helps calm systemic inflammation. Vitamin D helps regulate how cells grow and die, encouraging cancer cells to self-destruct. It also strengthens natural killer cells, the body’s frontline defenders. And ivermectin makes it harder for cancer cells to grow, spread, and defend themselves against oxidative stress. It may even block the blood supply tumors try to build.
How does your support help?
This path is not only hard physically and emotionally, it’s financially overwhelming. HDIVC isn’t covered by insurance. I’m paying out of pocket. I also have a high deductible just to activate insurance each year, not to mention co-pays and coinsurance. Every CT scan, every blood test, every specialist visit means missed work, more bills, and more strain. Your support lifts that burden. You’re not just helping me medically, you’re giving me the ability to keep showing up, to keep fighting, to keep hoping. I won’t sugarcoat it. This is my third battle with cancer in four years. It’s tough. But thanks to you, I don’t feel alone. Your support is the light in this tunnel. I feel your strength every time I sit down for treatment.
If you can give, please do.
If you can share my story, please do.
If you can pray, please do.
With love, gratitude, and determination,
thank you. — Wayne
