<div>My name is Kasia and I am a mother of three wonderful children. I stay in Erskine.On May 8, 2024, my life, my dreams, my hope for the future were brutally interrupted. I heard words that froze my soul: "You have cancer that we cannot stop. You have 2, maybe 3 months left to live. Please go home and say goodbye to your children. There is nothing more we can do..." I cannot describe how much my world collapsed at that moment. In one moment, I lost everything - hope, plans, dreams. The life I had been building up to that point became something fleeting in one moment, something that I had to say goodbye to before I had time to get used to it. Katarzyna Zawalidroga Why me? Why now? After all, others are fighting cancer and winning. Why should I be sentenced to inevitable death? How do I tell my children about it? How can I find the strength to look at their faces and tell them that I will soon be gone from their lives? My illness began suddenly – the first sign was a hemorrhage that forced me to go to the hospital immediately. In the hospital, everything happened very quickly. The diagnosis was devastating. I was told that I had stage IV neurogenic cervical cancer, with metastases to the bones and liver. “You have no chance…” – these were the words of the doctors that took my breath away. I started treatment, although I did not believe that I could succeed. Every day was like a fight for survival. Despite the initial improvement, the doctors still maintained that there was no hope. “We are stopping the treatment. You have months to live…” I was faced with the worst possible scenario. How to continue to function with such a diagnosis? How to return home and face my family? How to return to everyday duties when my whole life had shrunk to one, terrifying question: “How much time do I have?” Tears accompanied me every moment. Thoughts never left me: What will my funeral look like? How will my children remember their mother? What will happen if, instead of coming to me on Mother's Day, they can leave flowers at the cemetery? Katarzyna Zawalidroga Everything that seemed certain fell to pieces. Every day became a fight against inevitability, and the world that had been colorful until then suddenly became gray. Nothing made sense anymore. I lost ground under my feet. However, in the darkness of this tragedy, a spark of hope appeared. From other people fighting cancer, I learned about other treatment options that could give me a chance at life. My heart started beating again with the hope that if I just fight, if I don't give up without trying, maybe I will be able to get out of this hell. Maybe I will be able to enjoy life and be with my children for a while longer. Unfortunately, at this stage, every consultation, every test, every therapy involves huge costs that I am unable to bear. My family does not have such funds. And yet... I have to try. This fundraiser is my only chance for treatment, and treatment is my only hope for life. Even if I don't manage to beat cancer in the end, if I lose this fight, I want to at least use the time I still have to be with my children, to experience the most important moments with them - moments they will remember when they are adults. Katarzyna Zawalidroga If you can, help me fight this most important fight in my life. Help me regain a chance to live, even for a moment. Without your help, my dream of continuing to live, of being with my children, will disappear. With your help, we still have a chance. I believe that any help, even the smallest, can give me the opportunity to fight for this time, for this precious moment that I can still spend with those I love. Without you, there is no chance. Please help me.

<div>I wanted to thank everyone very much for all the help… I have been in hospital since 19.01… I have undergone a number of tests and scans… I have been given chemotherapy, which is administered in a three-day cycle in hospital conditions… I am additionally supported with drugs to improve the condition of the liver and the liver parameters have risen nicely… it is difficult after chemo… side effects have appeared but the most important thing is that the treatment has been implemented and the doctors see the point of the treatment… of course there are very difficult days, because of great weakness, bursting veins from all the injections, nosebleeds… and unfortunately weight loss… but I am sure that it is only temporary and in a moment the body will recover… the treatment will be long because the chemo cycle is planned for 9 sessions… at 18-day intervals…. I had to rent an apartment for the duration of the treatment because I am allowed to go home between sessions… the hardest thing to bear is being separated from my children … the longing that sometimes overwhelms me is unbearable… but I know that I am fighting because I want to be with them, which means that there is not a day of doubt… I can't do it… on the contrary… everything will be fine… you will do it

<div>Hello... I'm after my second chemotherapy, it's not easy... but no one promised it would be... the biggest problem is weakness and weight loss... on 28.02 a tomography will be done to confirm whether the chemotherapy is effective or whether other drugs need to be introduced... I'm optimistic because the results of liver tests have improved a lot... on the day of admission to the hospital before the first chemotherapy the results were at the level of 260 units, now after the use of chemotherapy, immunotherapy and additional drugs they have dropped to 40 units... and it's all thanks to your help... thank you for your help<br />
