You can never be prepared for such a diagnosis, and certainly not when your country is ravaged by war. Due to the difficult conditions and limited opportunities in Ukraine, my family was forced to make a decision, the consequences of which we still feel today.

Next year my oldest daughter is getting married and my biggest dream is to be with her on this important day with my family. Immunotherapy is a chance for further surgeries and treatment, but in my case it is not reimbursed and its costs are huge.

Her whole life has been a fight against cancer. Ewelinka doesn't know what a normal, carefree childhood is. The worst thing is that neuroblastoma often comes back. Then it is even more dangerous. We can't let her come back for Ewelinka! She may not survive another fight from the beginning...

I am not just a patient. I am a mother, a wife, a friend. I have always tried to support others, to share the joy and love that I have within me. Today I need support to continue to share this with my loved ones.

I have never asked the question, “How much time do I have left?” I believe that each of us is more than a statistic. Life is not mathematics and I want to defeat the cancer that attacked me, turning my life upside down. However, I need support.

I look into my daughter's eyes and I am terrified by the thought of leaving her... I have to do everything in my power to save my life! The only salvation is abroad, and the costs are enormous... Please help me so that I can continue to be a husband, a father and simply live.

A diagnosis of a very aggressive stage 4 cancer stopped my life in an instant and put it in question. I am asking for your help in fighting for additional time with my family.

Hodgkin's lymphoma appeared unexpectedly when I was 18, in November 2007. Since then, I have been battling the disease for 17 years. Unfortunately, despite many years of long, exhausting treatment, the disease is still active.

The nagging pain, although relieved by painkillers, strikes suddenly and often disrupts sleep. In his current condition, the father requires constant, expensive care and support, as everyday functioning is becoming increasingly difficult for him.

My husband, children and the whole family are my greatest motivation. I draw strength from their love and support. I fight, I smile, trying to show them what faith in a better tomorrow is, and they thank me by being with me on this difficult path.
