Update

More side effects of treatment have appeared. Wojtuś again has to fight from the beginning❗.
As of March 2024, Vojtuś and his parents He is staying at the Children's Health Center in Warsaw.
The chemotherapy he received was necessary, but its consequences proved to be very serious. Kidney damage has occurred, a Hydrocephalus - which he was already struggling with - began to worsen. Ventriculo-peritoneal valve replacement surgery was required.
Wojtek stopped talking
The surgery was supposed to help, but something went wrong. The boy suddenly stopped talking! He stopped swallowing! He was not moving. It was not even certain that he could hear his parents' voices. It was an absolute moment of terror for them!
By small steps, from scratch
Weeks of intensive rehabilitation have brought improvements. Physiotherapy, neurology and work with a neuropsychologist are slowly bringing results. Vojtuś is making small movements and beginning to regain contact. There is hope that if the progress continues, the boy will soon return home. Wojtek requires daily rehabilitation, specialized care and supplementation (including hemp oils, which help him fight spasticity). It will also be inevitable to adapt the boy's apartment to make his return from the hospital easier. To this end, the parents will have to adapt the stairwell to be navigable by wheelchair. Renovations will also be required in the bathroom. June 17, 2024

Explore the history of

Tiny body. A great enemy

Wojtus was diagnosed with NF1 - neurofibromatosis type 1. It's a genetic disease that attacked one of the most important parts of his childhood world - the optic nerves.
A glioma grew inhis head. A cancer that didn't wait. It did not retreat. It gave no time for tears.
In January 2023, surgery was required. Its consequences were devastating - the tumor took away Wojtusi's sight. A few months later, as a result of complications, he stopped walking. The boy is only 5 years old.

Nothing hurts more than a fight you can't see on the outside

And just when it seemed the suffering was over....

In the summer of 2023, it turned out that this was not all. The tumor began to grow again. Aggressive chemotherapy was started, which devastated the body day after day.
Wojtek spends the following days in the "Cape of Hope" in Wroclaw. He can't see the world, he can't move, but he can still hear his mother's voice and feel her hand.

Dramatic health condition is only half the problem

Today everything needs to be reorganized, as the disease has forced it. The main problem is the boy's health, but parents already have to think about Wojtek's return home. A home that is safe and adapted to the darkness. Every day is another bill. And the costs will grow. Taking care of Wojtek will require providing constant care of another person - support for the parents. Every zloty is support for the family, which is not giving up. Let's help Wojtek and his family! They won't be able to handle it all by themselves!
