About Me
- Max Letizi
- I just turned 22 years old. When I was 12 I was diagnosed with a medula blastoma brain tumor. This is a cancerous tumor about the size of a tennis ball growing in the forth ventricle of my brain. I had brain surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation treatments. The whole process lasted about two years. After that it took me another two to four years to recover from the treatment and I was back at about 85-90% of where I was before the cancer. Just recently I was diagnosed with a stage 4 sarcoma in my sphenoid sinus. A sarcoma is a very rare aggressive kind of cancer that is sometimes a side effect of prior radiation treatment. Because of its location the tumor is inoperable. The only treatment conventional medicine can offer is an extremely aggressive radiation treatment. Because it is an experimental protocol no one knows whether or not it will be in the least bit effective. Do I want to go ahead and try to purge the tumor with the treatment that most likely instigated the growth of the tumor in the first place??!!! I don't think so.
