Fundraiser description

My name is Wojtek, I’m 43 years old, and the proud father of two beautiful 2-year-old twin boys – Jurek and Edek. Just a year ago, our little family was living a happy, ordinary life. But everything changed in September 2024, when I was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme – an aggressive and devastating brain tumor.

I underwent surgery in the fall, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. For a while, we held on to hope. But after a few months, an MRI revealed that the tumor had returned. In April 2025, I underwent a second operation. I’ve resumed chemotherapy, but it’s now clear that standard treatments are no longer enough. My doctors have told me it’s time to consider other options.

After consulting with specialists in neuro-oncology and radiosurgery, I was approved for Optune therapy – an innovative treatment that can slow tumor growth and offer more time with my family.

But there’s a heartbreaking reality: this therapy is not covered by the National Health Fund. The cost is staggering – 120,000 PLN per month – far beyond what my family can afford. The treatment does not have a set duration – the longer it lasts, the more beneficial it may be.

All I want is more time. Time to be a husband. To be the father my boys need. To watch Jurek and Edek grow, take them to school, and ride bikes together. The thought of them growing up without their dad breaks my heart.

That’s why I’m reaching out — with humility and hope — asking for your help. Please consider supporting my fight. Every donation, every share, brings me closer to a future with my sons. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.

Wojtek
