Franek has always been a very active and athletic boy - he loves swimming, running and playing football. Unfortunately, the sudden diagnosis took away his beloved passions.

Disturbing symptoms appeared on Easter this year, because Frank's leg swelled in an unusual way - as much as 6 cm in circumference. We went for an x-ray. Already then, the diagnosis was suspected: a tumor of the fibula. First, an urgent MRI, then they sent us to Gdańsk, where a biopsy was performed, which confirmed the suspicions - Grade IV fibular bone tumor with metastases to the lungs and lymph nodes. Just a few days after receiving the result, Frank was administered the first dose of chemotherapy, and so far he has already taken four of them.

After the last dose, complications appeared - problems with hearing, vision and balance disorders. Despite this, Franek is coping with the current treatment very bravely, but it is difficult for him to stay in bed because he is an active boy and would like to return to his peers and everyday, normal life.

We travel between hospitals in Gdańsk, Bydgoszcz and Warsaw, which involves high costs. Frank still has a long way to go - after a cycle of chemotherapy, surgery is planned. Every day we learn something new about the treatment process. We do not know yet whether it will be necessary to implement non-reimbursed treatment - if so, it will cost several thousand dollars a month. Costly and long-term rehabilitation after treatment will certainly be necessary.

Franek dreams of returning to swimming, being with his peers and spending time actively again.

We will be grateful for all your support!
