Fighting a rare sarcoma: help Marek afford treatment in Katowice

In July I was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma. My oncology team at Katowice Regional Medical Center has planned 6 rounds of treatment, and the first starts in September. I was told to expect about 8 weeks away from work. I never imagined I'd be writing something like this. I'm 44, I worked as a bakery worker until July, and I have been the main earner for my household. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, transport to Katowice Regional Medical Center 3 times a week, and the income I have lost add up quickly. My family is doing everything they can, but we've already sold what we could and are borrowing for groceries. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $3,700 goes: • Chemotherapy and medication not covered: $1,950 • Scans and lab work: $380 • Transport to Katowice Regional Medical Center: $340 • Nutrition and supplements prescribed by the care team: $195 • Household costs while unable to work: $835 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
