About Paulina Messina
You may already be familiar with Paulina’s story. She suffers from a rare and incurable form of cancer, medullary thyroid cancer or MTC. Shortly after diagnosis, the disease quickly spread to her parotid gland, axila, the skull base, mediastinum, and her brain.
Having endured several unsuccessful surgical attempts, she turned to the hope of cutting edge clinical trials. Unfortunately, after two clinical drugs with marginal success in slowing the disease, she battles, according to her physician, a new “bunch” of tumors which have spread to her breast and the development of severe headaches once again, as the disease progresses.
Never one to give up, or back down, Paulina has shifted her focus away from conventional approaches to alternative therapies, treating the mind and soul as well as the body.
In her gracious manner she continues to fill others with hope and inspiration, and envisions a cure one day for those who may come after her.
Her message is simple. Take care of yourself, so you too can take care of your loved ones, and live every day as if it is your last.
Please join us as we applaud her fight, offer comfort, and help raise funds to continue her journey.
