Angel Bird Tamaneo

Dearest beautiful souls , can you please help me extend my life a little . My name is Angel Bird Trongcoso Tamaneo , 35 years old from Philippines ( Jel , Angel , Bird , Birdie to my friends ) I was diagnosed with advance stage lung cancer last August 2021. NSCLC or Non - Small Cell Lung Cancer Adenocarcinoma Stage4 with malignant pleural effusion and brain & lungs metastasis . I was told by my doctor that if I won't get treated ASAP I may have 6months left to live and if I get treated I may have 20-30 months to live . I am an OFW in Taiwan at that time and my work insurance helps me a lot to undergo the treatment , now im back to my home country the Philippines , I had finished 6 sessions of Palliative Chemotherapy or the life extension treatment . Yes I am grateful to God I surpassed the 6months struggle of chemotherapy and extraction of unknown fluid from my lungs but I am still human praying , fighting and wanting to live a little longer . I want to be a better Angelbird , a God fearing follower , a better version of myself and share back literally or not the kindness and help i had received to those who are also in need . Thank you, thank you and thank you for all that prays for me , supports me , helps me in every way and fights with me . May the good lord blesses you all with more in life. And since I'm in the Philippines , i can't work because of my condition and I'm running out of savings , facts of expensive medical expenses , hospital bills , laboratories , ct - scans , ultrasound and medicines needed, I am knocking unto your hearts to please help me aid with my continuous medication . As of this March 2022 , my ctscan shows that the cancercells has envaded both of my lungs, and also both of my breasts . My right lungs are almost covered thats why i have a difficulty in breathing so the doctor said it needs to be treated with radiation in order to aid my breathing a little easier . The radiation treatment should be everyday along with chemotherapy every two weeks . I also undergo breast biopsy to check if where those lumps come from and if it'll pose another harm to me . With these treatments and heartfelt prayers I hope to be better and heal accordingly . Yes Lord I am claiming my complete healing because I'm a firm believer of God and miracles do happen everyday . Either way I am ready for what God has prepared for me , but then I'm not gonna sit in a corner doing nothing , once again every cent you have for me is greatly appreciated . Thank you so much , Love , Jel Angel


 Here's my latest update AUGUST 2022:

 My last info here was during my breast biopsy, month of April 2022, and within that months so many things has happened. As for my breast nodules biopsy, they are cyst or lumps or whatever it is, but luckily its not cancerous so continue on the treatments. I undergo a 30-days lungs radiation treatment and 10-days brain radiation. The radiation is done only on weekdays and you can't be expose to direct sunlight esp from 9am-3pm or else you'll suffer with sunburn esp on the treated area. And then along with my radiation therapy im also having my chemotherapy weekly, yes everyweek cycle. There's this time that the radiation machine broke so the treatment also has to extend or i mean wait for days. Then during my treatment, my father got to be hospitalized too, and unfortunately after a month of battle, he passed away. God is trying to test my faith right? He sends us storm but storm just pass by it won't stay for too long, I trust His plans for me that's why I lift up everything in Him.

I had just finish my weekly cycle last friday and after 3weeks I'm going to have my ctscan again to check if whats happening or if there's progress inside my body. 

Honestly I now weighs 42kgs, I lost 13kgs after a year. Its not a good sign when talking progress right? But I am trying to have a happy vibe everyday. I'm talking to the Lord everynight to give me more beautiful mornings.

I'm still on the ongoing chemotherapy treatment because my oncologist said "as long as needed yours is stage4". My next chemo cycle will be after the result of my upcoming ct scans and labtests.

September 2022 update:

After my weekly cycle of chemotherapy, my doctor allows me a month rest from chemo, so lucky August. Since I'm on stage IV lung cancer case, chemotherapy treatment is a must or as long as i need it. So before I begin my another chemo-cycle, i undergo laboratory tests such as CBC, LDH, Creatinine, then whole abdomen ultrasound to check if the meds im taking cause damage to my liver or any internal organs in which I'm lucky they're fine. Then CTSCAN with contrast, which tells us progress on my case, the tumor's shrink a little especially the mother tumor. Before i start my Philippine treatment, it measures 6.6 x 4.4 x 6.0 cm, at the middle of my radiation and chemo treatment decrease to 5.2 x 3.6 x 4.8 cm, and after both treatment finished measure's 4.0 x 3.1 x 2.9 cm. It's goodnews right ^^.

I'm happy of this development but I am dealing with pain, i believe my tumor's causing it. My right side's hurting from shoulder, back, side and under my breast, that sometimes the pain is unbearable for me. So as of now I really can't tell if I got better.
