In July 2024, my life was beautifully ordinary. I had a job that I loved, a loving wife, and a wonderful son. Suddenly, everything fell apart. To call it the end of the world is an understatement…

I am writing to you with with great gratitude and thanks for the great help I received from such a large number of people whom I often did not even have the opportunity to meet.
 
Thank you for the helping hand you gave me, for the very large amount of money that was collected through the Rakiety Foundation, and which I used for over 4 months of treatment with the Optune device. 
 
It was a very difficult time for me and my family. I tried my best to use the device as best as I could. At the same time, I continued with standard treatment methods. I am delighted to share the wonderful news that a year after diagnosis, and after intensive treatment, The result of my MRI of the head is very good!
 
I'm working, trying to live a normal life, and enjoying this time. At the same time, I'm still undergoing Optune treatment, this time thanks to the tremendous support of my family, to whom I am very grateful. Thank you again for your help; you've given me a chance to return to normality. Thanks to you, I can continue to enjoy life and raise our son with my wife.
 
Thank you!

Dream:

My name is Krzysztof. At the age of 42, I received a diagnosis that changed my life – Glioblastoma multiforme grade IV.

In July 2024, my life was beautifully ordinary. I had a job that I loved, a loving wife, and a wonderful son. Suddenly, everything fell apart. Calling it the end of the world is an understatement… Hell began, which I am fighting with the support of my loved ones.

I underwent surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, due to the malignant nature of the disease, we sought help abroad. We found hope in innovative therapies – Optun and DCV dendritic cell immunotherapy.

I started treatment in Austria, using all my savings. The monthly cost of Optune therapy is 130,000 PLN, and the optimal treatment lasts 2 years – total 3,120,000 PLN. In addition, immunotherapy in London is another 500,000 PLN plus accommodation costs.

The disease has prevented me from working, and my savings are running out… I can currently work, but only in a limited capacity. I am still receiving chemotherapy. I am being treated with the Optune – TTF device, which is my hope for the future.
I am asking you for help in financing further treatment, which will give me a chance to return to life and work – my passion, which has always been helping other people.

I do it for my son – the meaning of my existence.
I would like to kindly ask you to transfer 1.5% of tax to my account at the Foundation and, if possible, for additional help.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support.
