Our heroes
It is a great honor for us to introduce you to our 4 patrons who want to help us make a promo video that will help us spread awareness about the project among other children and future donors and sponsors.
On 16.6 Davidek, Nelinka and Zuzanka will arrive in Málaga for a week. The fourth patron is Martinka, who cannot come to us at the moment due to her health condition, but as soon as her health improves, she is looking forward to arriving with the other children.
My name is Nelča and I am 12 years old.
After returning from Norway, where I lived and went to school with my parents and sister, I started to lose a lot of weight in the summer of 2019, when I was less than 9 years old. The doctors tried to find out what was happening to me, and in November of the same year they diagnosed me with pilocytic astrocytoma (glioma of the optic nerve, chiasma, with thalamus infiltration). At the University Hospital in Motol, a port was inserted and chemotherapy was started. It was given to me for 81 weeks (1.5 years). For me, it meant, every week, every Tuesday, to go either to the University Hospital in Motol or later to the rotation to the University Hospital in Hradec Králové, which we are closer, for one dose of chemotherapy. At that time, Covid was "raging", so I experienced quarantine like other children. In parallel with chemotherapy, I sometimes suffer from other health problems (e.g. malignant melanoma, eye surgery). To this day, I go for check-ups to many doctors who check my general condition (MR á 1/2 year, endocrinology, gynecology, ophthalmology,..).
I have been going to ballet since I was 5 years old and I love to travel and now I mainly take pictures. I would like to devote myself to photography one day, even professionally.
My name is Martinka and I am 5 years old.
Hello, my name is Martina Hyža and I have been treating my little Mika for 3 years at the paediatric oncology in Motol. Martinka's arrival into the world was not easy either. It is, a very big struggle, I am going with you on this long, painful, thorny road. I know how you feel, I know how afraid you are, I know how much uncertainty there is, how much pain there is on that path, I know what your greatest wish is...... Therefore, it is important to provide any support, to give courage, strength to go further. I got an amazing offer to fly to the sea, I always wanted it very much, but unfortunately so far the state of health does not allow us. Dear children and parents, take advantage of this opportunity to fly for a curative stay in Spain - Málaga right by the sea. We would like to thank from the bottom of our hearts all those involved in this project. Good luck in life wish you Martinky Hyžů.
My name is Zuzanka and I am 13 years old.
My name is Davidek, I am 6 years old.
When I was three years old, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I had 2 years of chemotherapy, which initially helped, but immediately after the end of the treatment, the tumor began to grow rapidly again. Therefore, Davidek has been in treatment since April 2023, now he is testing the effect of a new drug (biological therapy). Davidek enjoys travelling, cycling, he also likes to build Lego, listen to audio fairy tales and have the magazine Čtyřlístek read.
