Fundraiser description

One month ago, Paweł started therapy with the Optune device. We must admit, it would not be possible without YOU! Why did we choose this treatment?

“Optune is a portable, non-invasive device that creates electric fields tuned to specific frequencies that slow down cancer cell division and  destroy the cancer cells.”

Paweł must use it for at least five more months to ensure minimal treatment duration. 

Five months times 25,000 euros. It is a price we must pay for Paweł’s chance to recover and regain his old life. Thanks to your support, we started believing in a happy ending. Paweł also gained the strength to undergo another chemotherapy cycle and the confidence to say yes to his daughter’s question: “Daddy, will you recover?”  

I am begging you today to get together and show Paweł our support so that he gains peace of mind and comfort without constantly wondering what else can be done to make our dreams come true, like participating in our daughter’s first day of school… So much is yet to come for us…

Please donate! Help Paweł win the battle with cancer for the sake of our family, and share our fundraiser with your friends. 

Thank you so much. 

Kornelia, Paweł’s wife.

Update


After endless searching for information and consulting specialists, we decided to try Optune treatment. It is no longer a part of clinical trials and is officially reimbursed and approved for the effective and non-invasive treatment of glioblastoma in the USA and several European countries. 


In my case, Optune therapy will take six months and cost ca. € 150,000, and it needs to be started as soon as possible. Thanks to your donations, I can fight for my recovery and live longer!

–––––––

The life that I’ve built over the years is gone. Instead, I was given a chance to keep what was left of it. Only you can help me recover! I’m 38 years old, a wonderful wife, and a 6-year-old daughter, and I live with an unbearable diagnosis…

But let me start from the beginning. 

The story of my disease begins with a car accident. While driving, I suffered from an unexpected seizure and lost consciousness. In that brief moment, my life changed forever…

The accident itself wasn’t serious. However, I was taken to the hospital and underwent a more thorough examination. I received a diagnosis that has kept me up at night ever since. It turned out my seizure was a result of a brain tumor… An astrocytoma. My new enemy. 

I have already undergone surgery and radiation therapy, and currently, I’m in the middle of chemotherapy. To increase my chances of recovery, I would like to participate in the treatment, which isn’t refundable in Poland. I want to take a chance, though. 

I’m a strong man who will fight until the end. For myself and my beloved family…

Unfortunately, the treatment will be expensive, and we won’t be able to afford it…

I am a firefighter-rescuer and an underwater firefighter.

For many years my job was to save people. Today, I hope that you can save me. You are my last resort! 

Paweł
