I will fight until the end for my family! Help me defeat LEUKEMIA!

For many years, I thought I had it all. Every morning, I had breakfast and a coffee with my wife. After that, I worked on my projects. In the evening, I built bricks with my son or played a guitar. That's what my life looked like, and I loved it! 

It breaks my heart to think that I might lose it all. I am terminally ill - I have acute leukemia. Although I've been fighting for recovery for a year, I feel like the disease is slowly taking over... 

I am scared! I also know I cannot give up and do nothing about it. After all, I have a wonderful family! Being a father is the most beautiful role in the world. They are my whole world! How could I leave them on their own?

My life has been put on hold due to the disease in the past year. Its first symptoms have shown overnight - I suddenly felt exhausted and weak. I was on vacation at that time. As soon as I came back home, I had my bloodwork done. The results were extremely poor... 

I was in shock! Only several weeks before, I did the same tests, and they came out perfect! This time, I received a diagnosis - acute lymphoblastic leukemia. It sounded like a sentence, and I felt I was out of my depth... 

I immediately started chemotherapy, at the same time, searched for a blood stem cell donor. Thankfully, I found one and underwent a successful bone marrow transplant in January.

At the hospital, I was thinking about my family. The time we spent apart was unbearable. We could see each other only on camera on a computer. I went home after several months. 

The transplant and the chemo were successful! I was relieved and I thought the treatment was over. Every day, I felt better. Leukemia was slowly becoming just a painful memory. 

In July, I underwent a follow-up examination. It didn't even occur to me that I would hear the bad news again... 

I couldn't believe it when my doctor told me I had a cancer recurrence! The terrible diagnosis made me go weak at the knees... I sat down and went numb. I felt emptiness, followed by regret and anger...

I didn't return home that day - the doctors put me in a hospital. The cancer returned and quickly spread in my body. Unfortunately, another treatment at the hematology unit in Gdansk failed - my leukemia became drug-resistant. The doctors were helpless - chances for treatment in Poland were over.

I will put up a good fight, though. I won't leave my son and beloved wife! Currently, we are seeking help abroad. We have already contacted a clinic in Israel. We are also considering Belgium. A total cost estimate might be high, although we haven't received it yet. 

Unfortunately, I feel worse day by day. The chemotherapy has caused a lot of damage to my body. I am going blind. Due to my chronic weakness, I ended up in the hospital again. That doesn't stop me from fighting for recovery! All I need is support from you. We cannot afford all treatment costs, so I am asking you for donations from the bottom of my heart! 

Please remember, every penny is my chance to STAY ALIVE! Thank you.
