Dream:
My name is Zenek and I am 68 years old. For some – already 68, but for me – only 68.
It all started half a year ago with persistent hoarseness that wouldn't go away. Thanks to a quick diagnosis and a professional medical team, I heard the diagnosis: Hodgkin's lymphoma with nodular sclerosis, intermediate form with risk factor.
The PET scan showed multiple lesions at the level of the lymph nodes in the mediastinum, paratracheal areas and in the hilum of both lungs. I thought at that moment: "This is impossible, I feel healthy."
I have been working at an oncology institute for years, helping patients struggling with cancer. Now I myself have become a patient. In August 2024, I had lymph nodes removed from my neck and supraclavicle, and in September I started ABVD chemotherapy.
At the same time I took non-reimbursed supportive treatment, aimed at rebuilding my immune system. Chemotherapy destroys cancer cells, but also healthy cells, weakening the body and bone marrow. To continue fighting the disease, I need to start radiotherapy as soon as possible, but the weakening of the body prevents this for now.
The chance to continue the treatment is further supportive therapy., which helps strengthen the body. Unfortunately, the costs of treatment, supplementation, intravenous infusions and travel from Silesia to Warsaw amount to more than 15,000 PLN per month. Up until now I had been covering all my expenses myself, but our savings have run out, but our expenses have.
I have always told others: "Money is an acquired thing, it cannot decide about your life." Today I am asking for help to continue fighting.
My dream? To beat my illness and fulfill a promise I made to my deceased parents – to continue to care for my disabled brother who requires constant assistance.
Your support will open the door for me to this path.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your help, kindness and goodness. They really do wonders.
Gratefully,
Zenek
