Pietuszewski signed shirt up for auction to help child with brain tumour | OneFootball

Although he is not directly involved in the campaign, Pietuszewski may help change a child’s life. A signed jersey from the FC Porto player has been put up for a charity auction aimed at supporting Krzys Wajszczak, an 11-year-old Polish boy who is battling a malignant brain tumor.

The jersey was provided by a Polish journalist and will be auctioned to help the family raise money for the boy’s treatment. Krzys was diagnosed with a tumor in the cerebellum at the end of July and has already undergone emergency surgery to remove it. A long period of treatment now lies ahead.

The initial diagnosis indicates a medulloblastoma that has spread to the spinal cord. According to the appeal issued by his parents, the illness appeared suddenly. The boy first complained of headaches and, in the following days, developed neck stiffness and vomiting. After undergoing tests, he was urgently taken to Warsaw, where he was operated on.

His parents describe Krzys as a studious, sociable boy with a passion for kickboxing, chess, sport, and Lego. The campaign aims to secure the means needed for the next stages of treatment, including chemotherapy and radiotherapy, while the possibility of medical care outside Poland has not been ruled out either.
