Malaysia, Stage IV Rectal Cancer to Lung Nodules and Renal Carcinoma: Mr. Yap's Journey of Resilience and Hope 从直肠癌到肺结节:叶先生的坚韧与希望之旅

Rectal Cancer to Lung Nodules
ECCT treatment should stand for Economical Critical Cancer Therapy, it is so easy to do, non invasive, no need to suffer treatment in hospital, queue up in hospital. The thing I like the most is I can be with family and comes with interest free installment. No more ICU!

As a 70-year-old cancer warrior from Malaysia, Mr. Yap  — a father, husband, and fighter who battled cancer not once, but three times. His story is a testament to human willpower and the possibility of hope beyond conventional cancer treatments.


Mr. Yap was first diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer in 2019. He underwent a stoma surgery followed by a low anterior resection, which successfully removed part of his colon. After surgery, he completed eight cycles of chemotherapy and appeared to be in remission.


However, in 2020, a recurrence was discovered in his pelvis — a local tumor near the site of the anastomosis. He underwent a second surgery to remove the affected area. A year later, in 2021, the cancer returned once more — this time in the right kidney. The malignancy was confirmed as a metastatic adenocarcinoma, consistent with spread from the colorectal primary. A right nephrectomy (kidney removal) was performed.


Just when his family thought the worst was behind them, a routine CT scan in 2022 revealed new nodules in both lungs. A PET-CT confirmed hypermetabolic lung nodules — a sign that the cancer had metastasized again. From Rectal Cancer to Lung Nodules.


Mr. Yap was prescribed another 8 cycles of chemotherapy, but after just 2 cycles, his body could no longer withstand the harsh side effects. He was admitted to ICU, suffering from severe weakness, painful ulcers, and appetite loss. It was at this point that he told his family:

“No more chemotherapy. No more radiotherapy. My body can’t take it anymore.”

For his wife and children, watching their loved one endure such pain — especially during ICU admissions amid COVID-19 lockdowns when visits were not allowed — was heartbreaking. As Michelle, his daughter, shared:

“We saw it in his eyes — he felt lost, disheartened, and alone.”

In search of another way, the family discovered Electro-Capacitive Cancer Therapy (ECCT) — a non-invasive, alternative treatment backed by scientific principles. They reached out to the ECCT team, who responded with warmth and professionalism. A comprehensive Zoom session was arranged with Prof. Bilgin, Dr. Chandran, and the ECCT medical team, where the family’s many questions were answered patiently and in detail.

Since starting ECCT in May 2023, Mr. Yap’s life has taken a noticeable turn for the better:


✅ He has not returned to ICU

✅ He receives weekly check-ins with the ECCT support team

✅ He experiences no significant side effects

✅ Most importantly, he is being treated at home, surrounded by family


His family has witnessed remarkable improvements in his daily well-being:

“Dad smiles again. Dad eats. Dad walks. Dad laughs,” Michelle shared. “We’re no longer just surviving — we’re living again.”

Mr. Yap’s cancer journey is ongoing, but the transformation in his quality of life since starting ECCT has been profound. After enduring multiple major surgeries, extensive chemotherapy, and the emotional isolation of ICU stays, he is now regaining strength and happiness in the comfort of his own home.


To those navigating similar battles — especially when the body can no longer handle aggressive therapies — Mr. Yap’s story offers a message of hope. ECCT is not just a treatment. It’s a second chance at life.


As his daughter beautifully said:

“Our Dad fought like a warrior, and today, he survives like a champion.”
