IS IT POSSIBLE TO BUY TIME?

IS IT POSSIBLE TO BUY TIME?

Silly question! From a child, we know that time can not be bought. But can you give someone time?  This is where my story begins. Until recently, my future seemed bright. Working as an IT specialist has allowed me courageous dreams. A few years ago I met her – Barbara! I knew that this is the only person with whom I want to create a family, build a real home with a group of kids, travel around the world, take something from the world and give something to the world. Common holidays in warm countries, trips to friends, Christmas together, overcoming the small and big difficulties that everyday life brings us very much! I could not wait any longer – I proposed! Proposals have been accepted! We were really happy! Speaking my computer language, I felt that we were a super computer with a great multi-core processor and a super-fast graphics card. We had the feeling that time is ours and we can do everything!

During one of summer trips in 2017 I felt worse. There were indigestions, diarrhea, etc. Healthy lifestyle, sensible nutrition, lack of addictions made me immune to good – I thought. It was possible to live! I went to the doctor, just in case he gave me a “pill” for indigestion. I went to the doctor in a good mood. And here, in fact, my optimistic story could end. Then something happened that many say, “my life broke down.” First, it was supposed to be a harmless rota virus. Colonoscopy revealed a suspicion of colon cancer. Waiting for the outcome of the histopathological examination and hope that everything will be fine. Just before Christmas, time stopped for me with the diagnosis: G2 ulcerated adenocarcinoma.

The operation took place on 05/01/2018 at the Hospital of the Order of St. Bonifraters in Krakow. It was supposed to last 1.5 hours – but it lasted 5 hours. During the operation, it turned out that the cancer was locally very advanced. Fixed pelvic tumor infiltrating the urinary bladder and secondly retracting sigmoid colon above the tumor, infiltration into the right iliac vessels and retroperitoneal space, most of the infiltration was removed, the suspect sites were braced with titanium clips. The type of surgery I was given was: anterior resection of the rectum with a colostomy outlet. Partial excision of the ureter and implantation of the ureter to the bladder. The number of body sections taken during surgery: a total of 38 (including: rectum, sigmoid colon, urinary bladder, hip infiltration, retroperitoneal infiltration, uretersus left).

After the operation, the time of waiting… waiting for the result of the examination that depended on my further treatment, and really my further life. On 17/01/2018, a phone call from the hospital – is the result and the final diagnosis – tumor size 10 cm – the degree of clinical advancement according to prognostic groups – IIIC (in the 4th degree scale). Due to post-operative complications and another stay in the hospital, Retzius abscess began the proper treatment from April 2018. From April to mid-May 2018 radiotherapy (30 irradiations) at the Radiotherapy Department of the University Children’s Hospital in Krakow-Prokocim at the same time with the first stroke dose of chemistry: Xeloda (capecitabine). From June to mid-October, a total of 6 series of chemistry: Xeloda (capecitabine).

How does a man feel during such treatment? Well, it is a mixture of moods with the predominance of those pessimistic. On the one hand, the struggle for life, full determination, and on the other, the feeling of helplessness, that I can not really do anything myself, that I can not influence the further course of events. This hard time for me survived thanks to the support of my relatives who, like a mantra, repeated to me: “it must be good that I can not give up”.

Now I am in the course of supportive treatment (not funded by the NFZ-Polish Health Found), which gives me a 98% chance that I will win the fight for “time”. The preparations that I take are designed to increase the immunity of my body in the fight against cancer cells. The list is long, and this is part of the preparations that I accept: Orme-Si, Mumio + Mumio Sekret/Visanto, ApiBioFarma, ADEK plus, EPA Forte, Coenzyme Q10, Neurolipon MIP600, vitamins A + D3, D3 + K2Forte, Vitamin B12, B6 , PP, selenium, zinc, Kreon25000, folate, Bromelain / Papain, vitamin K2MK7, vitamin C, Amygdalin 500mg, Baikalina, EpiQuercican, Phytobiological, Zeolite, DMSO Chempur, CBD15% oil, plasma water.

I started using it from September 2018. The effect surprised everyone. Marker cancer, which despite treatment (radiotherapy + chemotherapy) maintained at 2.58 decreased to 1.68! My body began to fight the “crustacean”, I entered the lasting path of improvement. My Barbara believed always! I’m starting to believe again that it will be good! … that there will be a house, that there will be a group of children, that there will be life! With the help of the people closest to me, I am provided with therapy until Mai 2019. The cost of a monthly therapy is about PLN 4,000 (930 Euro, 1050$). Expected duration of treatment approx. 2 years, total cost approx. 70,000 PLN (16 300 Euro, 18 400$).

What will happen in 2019? I do not know. Time passes quickly. I know that every month of therapy extends my time, it’s time to be here with you. No, I do not want to feel sorry for myself. Being in the role of the recipient is as embarrassing as it is unusual for me. I know, however, that only people in my situation can get more time, time to be with you on earth an anonymous, and so important for me donor. So I am asking you for help me, Barbara and maybe our children! Thank you and I wish you a lot of health for every day of your life.
