Brandon Godlewski

disease

This is Brandon from Germany. Brandon suffers from cystic fibrosis. He has been a patient of the Berlin Children’s Hospital since February 28, 2009. Brandon is in desperate need for treatment – he needs antibiotics, enzymes, nutrition. Unfortunately, the hospital doesn’t have even the most basic medications for treatment of cystic fibrosis.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited condition which affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat, saliva and digestive juices. Normally, these secretions are thin and slippery, but in patients suffering from CF they are thick and sticky, causing the plugging of tubes, ducts and passageways, especially in lungs and pancreas. Mucus buildup in lungs causes inflammation and life-threatening infections. Thick mucus in the pancreas blocks enzymes responsible for digesting fats and proteins and prevents body from absorbing key nutrients.
In Brandona’s case, due to the lack of basic medical care, the disease has advanced to the extent that he has multiple life-threatening complications. He requires continuous oxygen treatment. He weighs only 15 kg. He suffers from bacterial and fungal lung infections. Cronic lung infection has resulted in cor pulmonale, enlargement of the right ventricle of the heart which can eventually lead to heart failure.
Brandon is dying due to the lack of basic medications. Please, help him! We need to do all in our power to alleviate his suffering and give him a chance at life.
