What they care about

As a person with Chronicle pain my goal is to help others in the same situation.

Social advocacy
    My name is Peter, I live in Sweden and I am raising funds to help a single mother and her three sons in Kyiv, Ukraine. Why This Family Matters to Me I came into contact with this family through the children during their time in Sweden. Since their return to Kyiv, I have stayed in touch with them through social media. The mother does not speak much English, so our communication goes mainly through the children. A Mother Raising Three Boys Alone in Kyiv She is raising three boys on her own — a 6-year-old son and 13-year-old twin boys. Their father has been absent due to the war, and it is still unclear whether he is alive. The uncertainty, combined with the daily reality of war, creates a constant emotional and financial strain on the family. Clothes and Food That Keep Circulating I regularly collect clothes and basic food supplies to send to them. The boys are growing fast, and warm clothing, shoes, and everyday essentials are urgently needed. When clothes no longer fit, the family passes them on to neighbors and other families they meet in bomb shelters. Your support will not only help one family — it will continue to help others in their community. Shipping Costs – The Only Obstacle The cost of shipping is 20 SEK (about €2) per kilogram. Even small donations make a real difference. Every contribution goes directly toward covering the shipping costs so that these supplies can reach them safely. A Long-Term Commitment This is not a one-time effort. I am committed to continuing to support this family for as long as the need remains. Your Support Makes This Possible If you feel moved to help, please consider donating and sharing this fundraiser. Together, we can bring warmth, dignity, and hope to a mother and her sons living under the shadow of war. Please donate at least the minimum for ONE box (€20) and please share forward. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. -- Peter --

    An invisible injury - It is easier to explain having lost a leg or having gone blind, but the aftermath of my stroke has given me brain fatigue and pain in my joints. These are side effects that cannot be touched but that affect my life every minute.

    Hello, my name is Peter. I am a single father, musician, and certified massage therapist living in Sweden. A few years ago, I suffered a stroke, and one of the lasting effects I live with every day is brain fatigue. On top of that, the medication I must take for the rest of my life has caused chronic joint pain. In Sweden, the cold climate makes everything harder. When the temperature drops below 15°C (59⁰F) – which it does most of the year – my pain increases, my energy decreases, and it becomes difficult to work. As both a musician and a massage therapist, my body is my instrument and my tool, and when it hurts, I can’t do my job. But I have discovered something important: When I spend time in Spain, the warmth and the sun give me back my energy, reduce my pain, and allow me to live more fully. Ideally, I would move somewhere with warm weather all year round, but that would take me too far away from my children. Spain is a realistic compromise – warm enough for me to regain my health, but close enough so that I can remain present in my child’s life. Right now, I cannot relocate permanently, since my child is still in school in Sweden. But once a year, I try to travel to Spain to explore different areas, so that I can find the right place to settle in the future – a place where I can live with strength, health, and hope. How the funds will be used • Flights to Spain. • Accommodation and food during the trip. • Local transportation to visit different regions. My goal is to raise 25 000 SEK ($2400 / €2100) to cover the costs of my next trip. Looking ahead – a vision for the future My dream is not only to find a home in Spain for myself. I also want this place to have a guest room for others who struggle with similar challenges – people who have had a stroke, or who live with chronic pain in their joints. Not everyone has the possibility to move abroad, but I would love to create a space where they can come for a short stay – to rest, recover, and experience the relief that the warmth and sun can bring. This is a long-term vision, but it gives me hope and strength. Your support for my journey is the first step toward making that vision real – not just for me, but also for others who need a place of peace and recovery. Why your support matters By contributing, you are not just helping me manage my health – you are also helping me be a stronger, more present father, and giving me the chance to keep working with the things I love. Every donation, big or small, makes a difference. Together, you can help me find a place in the sun – and a life without pain. / Peter
