Please Help Save Jacek from Cancer
Donation protected
In July 2019 our family’s world was shaken to the core when my husband Jacek was diagnosed with Stage 4 Anaplastic Carcinoma, a rare and extremely aggressive thyroid cancer that was threatening to take him from our lives much too soon.
I can still remember the fear in Jacek’s eyes as the doctor explained that he would be required to undergo extensive surgery to remove the entire thyroid but together as a family, and with the grace of God, Jacek’s surgery was successful, and he began radiation and chemotherapy that November.
The treatments were so hard on Jacek. He was constantly in pain and so frail, but he always remained hopeful as we prayed for heaven’s light to touch our lives and help our family through this devastating time. It was heart-breaking to watch the love of my life wilting away and our young children, who were only 8 and 4 years old at the time, could not fully understand why their once strong and playful father was no longer able to chase them in a game of tag or play hide and seek.
Jacek’s once strong body had become so weak, he was no longer able to work and at times, barely had the strength to hold his children in his arms or even clasp his fingers around mine. I was watching my best friend, my love, my rock fade away, and just when we thought the worst was behind us as the chemotherapy seemed to be working to fight the cancer riddling his body...we were dealt another devastating blow.
The chemo that was supposed to be saving Jacek’s life had caused chemo-induced leukemia.
This news was delivered to us this past July and at that moment it was like time stopped and our world came crashing down upon us. Two years of Jacek fighting so hard to survive thyroid cancer have now led to us being informed he has only a few months left to live. This is due to no possibility of a bone marrow transplant to treat the luekemia as the existing thyroid cancer is active and has spread.
This can’t be his destiny...he has so much more left to give to this world...there must be hope.
We immediately began seeking other options for treatment and thankfully we discovered an alternative treatment that is less invasive and has a real chance to save Jacek’s life. A chance to allow Jacek to watch our amazingly beautiful children grow into adults. To attend their graduations, their weddings, and one day hold his grandchildren in his arms...but we need your help to get Jacek the treatment he deserves.
After two years of continued cancer treatments, our savings have been depleted as we paid all treatments up to this date on our own and my income alone cannot provide the financial means to cover the cost of treatment, which is over half a million dollars . Thankfully, one of Jacek’s good friends, Mike, has taken it upon himself to set up this campaign for Jacek and we are so thankful and so blessed for his selfless contribution. It is our prayer that with your generous support, we will be able to admit Jacek into the clinic and save him from the fate he has been assigned by current physicians.
100% of your generous donations will go directly towards the cost of the non-invasive procedures in the hopes of treating the cancer that is trying to steal Jacek from our lives.
It is so difficult to put what Jacek means to us in words and even more difficult to turn to others for help. However, I must do everything I can to give Jacek a fighting chance as his will may be strong, but his body is weakening by the day. He needs our support to fight this horrible disease.
Jacek is only 38 years old and has so much to give to this world. He has always been such a kind, giving man with a heart of gold. We pray daily for guidance and the strength to continue to fight as I cannot and will not imagine a day when I would have to tell our children their father is gone.
There is always hope and we cannot thank you enough for your support and your prayers during this very difficult time. We ask that you please find it in your heart to also share our campaign with your family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers so that together, we can provide the means to give Jacek a fighting chance.
Thank you all and God bless.
