A mother from Perth with stage four bowel cancer is going to Thailand in a last-ditch effort to beat the disease, which doctors missed at first.
A year ago, Sarah Langlands started sweating at night. She was given an iron infusion and sent home.
According to The West Australian, the 35-year-old went to her primary care physician after discovering a lump in her stomach and was assured it was merely fatty tissue.
In the end, it was found out she had aggressive bowel cancer that had spread to 70% of her liver.
Her four children, ages 14, 11, and 9, and her seven-year-old daughter Jordyn, described the news of the diagnosis as “horrendous,” according to Mrs. Langlands.
Mrs. Langlands called it ‘horrendous’ the experience of disclosing her condition to her four children. null
It was the most difficult decision of my life, Mrs. Langlands said. “I was crying, they were crying—no one wants to see their mother get sick, and I don’t want their lives to alter,” she said.
According to the Bedfordale mother, she began chemotherapy after being warned she would die if she lost more than 30% of her liver to disease.
After 23 rounds of chemotherapy, Mrs. Langlands was informed that the tumors had returned.

She described the news as “deflating,” so she turned to alternative remedies in Thailand, specifically at Veritalife in Bangkok.
Along with typical cancer therapies, the health hub provides hope for individuals who aren’t ready to give up yet.
However, counseling is not inexpensive. For eight weeks of treatment, Mrs. Langlands will require more than $12,000 a week, not including the cost of lodging or other procedures like scans and blood tests.
The family has raised $63,000 through a GoFundMe campaign, but they still require an additional $50,000.
