Cart T cell treatment for colon cancer

After weeks of research we have found that this treatment is available in Mexico at one of their state of the art private hospitals. It's very expensive at around £250,000 but I'm re mortgaging my house to pay for it. My family fully support me. This treatment is Not available on NHS or even privately in Europe or USA/Canada. At the moment it's only available for blood cancers in UK and even then it is only given to few. The oldest person it's worked for so far is a 69 year old gentleman from USA. They have a number of patients from UK and Europe. I can't give name of hospital but an internet  search will soon find it. There are direct flights from London for between £700- £1000 return. Hope this helps someone who feels like giving up. God bless.
