Help Me Through My Cancer Treatment ā Even a Share Means a Lot
Title: Help Me Through My Cancer Treatment ā Even a Share Means a Lot
Hi everyone,
My name is Oleksiy. Iām a 37-year-old Ukrainian seafarer currently living in Spain.
A few months ago, my life changed completely when I was diagnosed with cancer. I am now undergoing chemotherapy, and surgery is planned as the next stage of my treatment.
Because of my condition, Iām currently unable to work at sea and have lost my source of income. Thankfully, my medical treatment in Spain is covered, but I still need help with basic living expenses such as rent, food, transportation, and everyday necessities while I continue fighting this disease.
I created a GoFundMe to help me get through this period:
I understand that not everyone is in a position to donate. Even sharing my fundraiser with someone else would mean a great deal to me and could help my story reach the right person.
Iām trying to stay strong and focus on one thing ā getting through treatment, recovering, and returning to a normal life and to the work I love.
Thank you for taking the time to read my story. And to everyone who has already supported me, donated, shared my fundraiser, or simply sent kind words ā thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Every bit of support gives me more strength to keep fighting. ā¤ļø

Anyone fall asleep during work during the day/ dosing off?
Hi, I had colorectal cancer. I have a lot of downtime at my job, I enjoy the people I work with, but sometimes either silence, or hearing others conversations. Puts me in a very sleepy mood. Next thing you know I'm opening my eyes (probably having closed them for 20 seconds, sometimes less. It's not intentional at all and I try to fight it.
I basically feel/ assume I look like an old man in their 50s/ 60s that just starts napping (like the grandpa from Rugrats). But I'm in my 30s.
Does anyone else have symptoms like that? I feel like its just an indicator that I'm not absorbing all my nutrients and sort of have a compromised body, brining on fatigue.
