Help me beat terminal illness
Donation protected
The struggles with illness have many different faces. Each story is someone’s life.
The things that connect them all are tears, joy, pain, surprises, sadness, powerlessness, hope, faith, determination, giving up and fight…
It’s a wide range of feelings, experiences and actions.
Probably most of you already knows first chapter of my journey with cancer which ended successfully. Although this was the case, unfortunately life decided to write a second chapter to that story. This time it’s not as optimistic as the first one.
My story with breast cancer started in April 2016. This was after biopsy and scan results confirming I was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer. It was metastatic cancer which has spread to my lymph system with the tumour that is 5cm. However, the doctors gave me hope, promising they can cure it, keeping my spirits up. My determination and will power is strong, but there are moments of weakness too. I know I cannot give up and that’s why I’ve started long and difficult cancer treatment… 6 cycles of chemotherapy every 3 weeks, followed by removal of the tumour and finished in February 2017 with radiotherapy.
It’s difficult for me to write about what happened in January this year… IT came back bigger, stronger and it spread to nearly all other parts of my body… This diagnosis overwhelmed me completely. The cancer spread to lungs, liver and lymph system. Doctors give me no change. The only thing they can offer is chemotherapy that can prolong my life for approximately 2 more years. My whole world fell apart in one second, thousands of thought goes through my mind like crazy… After all I am so young, I have a wonderful family, my sweet daughter Dominica and so many plans for the future… I don’t want to die yet. I have so many things to complete. I want to be able to see my child grow and experience happy life! I have last hope in unconventional cancer treatment. I’ve made a decision to do that as traditional medicine treatments have wrote me off. There appeared to be so many people who are helping me in those difficult moments, they keep my spirits up and offer support with everything I do.
Those who know me also know I’m a closed book. I always counted on myself and never asked for help. However, in this situation, I beg you for help as I cannot do it on my own.
All I ask is to support me with my recovery and donate a symbolic penny, meaning the smallest donation counts! This time I’m fighting for my life and that’s what is at stake.
I’m still very emotional after fining out about a girl called Martynka Choczaj, who, hearing her parents talking about my story, decided to donate her little piggy bank. She also said it isn’t much , but if she talks to all of her friends and they also donate, then definitely this will be enough! Such a big gesture gives me hope that it might just work, that I will go into remission and that there are people who keep their fingers crossed for me and want me to fight! Please give me your support and help me live.
Thank you all for your help, no mater how small it is.
