Imagine this moment: The scent of fir trees and biscuits is in the air. Outside the window, snow is falling softly and a fire is crackling in the fireplace. Four children's eyes light up in the glow of the Christmas candles as they listen intently to the sound of a Christmas story.

For most of us, this is the magic of Christmas. For **Markus (42)** and his four children, it will be something unimaginable this year: **his last Christmas**.

The diagnosis was relentless. The cancer he has fought for so long can no longer be stopped. While other families are making plans for next year, Markus knows that his time with his children - aged 6, 9, 12 and 14 - is coming to an end.

His only, his very last wish?

**"One last, perfect Christmas with my children. Far away from hospital odours, infusions and the overwhelming weight of saying goodbye. I just want to be their father one last time. I want to give them a memory that will last a lifetime. A memory of a dad who laughed with them in the snow - not one who lay weak in bed. "**

Help make this last Christmas miracle come true

We are not collecting for expensive therapy. We are collecting for **priceless moments.** For the feeling when his daughter (6) proudly presents him with the angel she made herself. For the happiness in the eyes of his son (9) when they decorate the Christmas tree together. For the last family photo in front of a snowy winter landscape, where they are all laughing together - as if there is no tomorrow, just this one perfect moment.

**Your donation creates these unforgettable moments:**

**Every contribution, large or small, writes a line in this family's final Christmas chapter. A line that is not about sadness, but about love, laughter and security.

Help Markus to leave his children the most precious gift a father can give: **The certainty that their time together will end in a radiant, loving light - surrounded by the magic of Christmas.

Thank you very much
