    Story

    "Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible and achieves the impossible."

    I have decided to start this Crowdfunding Page to help my friend Ania, who is battling cancer metastasis.

    Ania is 40-year-old mum of two (13 and 3), loving wife and a good friend. But life wasn't too gracious for her. In 2014 she lost her mother due to cancer. Month after her mum's funeral Ania was diagnosed with malignant breast cancer. She underwent chemotherapy, then mastectomy of right breast and radiotherapy with hormone therapy.

    In July 2015 cancer was defeated. She couldn't have been much happier. But her happiness had lasted for about one year only. In November 2016 she was told about metastasis to bones (left hip, pelvis on the right side, ribs on both sides, spine).
    And her battle with cancer had started again...

    Ania is very determined to fight it off, because she has very important reasons to live. Unfortunately conventional medicine is not able to help her, only to ease the pain with some strong drugs.
    But... There is a chance to cure Ania with intravenous infusions of Sodium Ascorbate,
    Salinomycin with Selol and Hyperthermia. Unfortunately 6-month treatment costs about £9,000 and it's not covered by NHS. To get this kind of treatment she has to travel abroad. It's very expensive, but it's the only hope for her and her family.

    Hope is the last thing to be lost. We can't lose it. If we lose hope, we lose everything.

    That's why Ania needs your help. Without this money she is not able to undergo the treatment which may save her life.

    Please remember one thing, helping Ania you are giving her sons hope that they will still have their mum...

    Every penny counts.
    Give however much you want.

    Thank you!

    If you wish to contact Ania, you can find her on Facebook: Anna Piżewska.

    With love,
    Edythe

      Good news!! Ania starts her treatment on 25th of August, in Clinic in Warsaw. Bad news we still need your help to ensure that she will get a full treatment and we won't run out of money in the middle of her treatment. We appreciate every little help. Thank you for everything you have done so far!

      First of all, I'd like to thank you all for your donations. We realise that many people struggle every day with their finances, so sometimes it's not easy to donate even £10. Thanks to your generosity Ania's chances to get the treatment are getting more realistic. But before she can begin with her treatment she needs to have some very specific blood tests done (to mark what genotype and fenotype of tumour it is). Cost of this blood test is about £2500! It is necessary for preparing a right and complex treatment for Ania.

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!

    I have a brain tumour myself, so I know how it is to live with such health problems. This is one of the reasons why I have decided to raise money for someone who needs it more than I do.
