Until recently, my life was ordinary: work, home, plans, the laughter of my children. In July, everything stopped. A severe headache, disturbing symptoms, and urgent diagnostics were needed. Moments later, I heard a diagnosis that sounded like a death sentence., <strong>grade IV glioma<\/strong>, one of the most aggressive brain tumors. In one second, my world and that of my family fell apart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>I have already had two surgeries to remove the tumor and radiotherapy and chemotherapy.<\/strong>, which, to the doctors&#039; surprise, my body tolerated very well. I have several months of chemotherapy ahead of me. I&#039;m fighting with all my might. Unfortunately, a small, millimeter-sized lesion ruined my chances of participating in a subsidized clinical trial. It was another blow. However, I knew I couldn&#039;t give up.<\/p>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: center;\">A month ago, I started my own TT Fields Optune (Tumor Treating Fields) therapy. This is a modern, internationally recognized method of treating glioma, using special electric fields that inhibit the division of cancer cells and slow down the progression of the disease. The therapy requires wearing a special device for most of the day. It offers hope for extending life and halting the progression of the disease, but its <strong>the cost is approximately PLN 120,000 per month<\/strong>, and starting treatment required two months&#039; payment in advance. For the therapy to be effective, it must last at least two years, which translates to a total cost of nearly 3 million z\u0142oty. These enormous costs are impossible for my family to cover. However, these are not the only expenses. Every month, I incur travel costs to medical centers, specialized supplements, and a diet to support my body in this unequal battle. I&#039;m doing everything possible to win, because I have so much to live for.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\" style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">You might remember me from the show &quot;Married at First Sight.&quot; That&#039;s where my story with Anita began. Today, we are the parents of two wonderful children, Jerzy and Bianka. I grew up without a father, and my biggest dream is to be a present father to my children. I want to watch them grow up. I want to hold my wife&#039;s hand. I want to live. I believe in medicine, in determination, and in the human heart.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Every support is a real chance for me to spend the next months and years with my family. <strong>This is time that cannot be converted into money<\/strong>.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u00a0<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\n<div dir=\"auto\">Thank you for being here.
