Help Marzena Fight Glioblastoma
Donation protected
I'm Marzena, I am 41 years old and I have been battling cancer since 2012 when I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I recovered after taking chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Everything was good until the 21st of September when my daughter started noticing worrying changes which were signs of a stroke, and called an ambulance.
I had brain scans and doctors discovered a growing mass in my brain. I was rushed to Beaumont hospital in Dublin for surgery.
After surgery I was diagnosed with glioblastoma multiforme, also known as glioblastoma and grade IV astrocytoma.
Glioblastomas are grade 4, therefore they are very fast growing and are one of the most vigorous and most agressive type of brain tumour.
With surgery doctors got rid of around 95% of the tumour while 5% is still left. I will be soon taking radiotherapy and chemotherapy orally as a pill but these are not very successful and prognosis is poor even after these treatments. That is why I want to try alternative treatments which might save my life.
Standard treatments are covered but alternative ones are not and are very expensive, I currently do not have the money for these treatments so I am asking for help in form of donations, any amount will be really helpful and appreciated and all donations will go towards saving my life. I am a single mother and I want to live long enough to see my daughter grow up and I want to be there for her.
If you are unable to donate then all I'm asking for is if you could keep me in your prayers and help me win my battle with this horrible disease, thank you, Marzena.
