Fundraiser description

I look into my daughter's eyes, and I'm so scared I’ll die and she will never see me again! The only life-saving solution is the treatment abroad - I must do everything to raise funds to pay for it! After all, I am a husband and a father - I MUST SURVIVE for my family! Help!

Several days ago, I received a cost estimate from an Israeli clinic. My wife and I started crying. We've been waiting so long for a life-saving treatment opportunity, and when we finally receive it, it is so expensive we cannot afford it! I am begging you for help! 

It all started innocently. In September, I noticed my belly was enlarged. I went to the hospital, where I was told I had infiltration of my peritoneum. A month later, I heard a diagnosis that made my blood run cold - secondary peritoneal cancer of unknown primary. 

My whole world just fell apart. I didn't know what to do, where to go, or what would happen to me. After all, there were no warning signs or early symptoms of the disease! A couple of days later, I returned to the hospital, all scared and teary. 

I underwent a series of tests and examinations that would determine the location of the primary cancer. Unfortunately, to this day, I have remained undiagnosed! Within a year, I had 23 chemotherapies, which weren't targeted therapies but palliative ones. The longer I have it, the worse I feel. I've also developed neuropathy, which intensifies every day. 

Despite the chemo, the disease has progressed. I underwent cytoreductive surgery to remove peritoneal infiltration due to the formation of intestinal obstruction. Unfortunately, a complete cytoreduction was impossible. I cannot wait for death! I must act fast! 

I want to see my daughter grow up and support her!

Cancer treatment in Israel is my last resort. Its costs are overwhelming, though! I have never seen this kind of money in my entire life. Thanks to your support, I can already start the treatment next week, but I need to raise more funds to complete it.  

I am asking you for help from the bottom of my heart. I am not giving up despite the hardships I am going through. I won't win the battle with the ruthless enemy without your support!

I want to keep on fighting. I want to survive. Help me, please!

Tomek
