When life is at its hardest, a light shines brightest from somewhere unexpected.

The boy who showed us what unconditional love means

What happens when the joyful anticipation of a baby is interrupted by news no parent can prepare for? In a moving, candid and at times humorous account, Dušan Poslek invites us into his family’s life, shaped by love, uncertainty and difficult decisions. His story invites us to reflect on parenthood, the limits of our strength and the human connection that gives life meaning even in its hardest moments.

About the author

Dušan Poslek

Father, author and co-founder of the This Child Will Live Institute

Dušan Poslek je najprej mož in oče. Iz pripadnosti družini raste njegovo poslanstvo: pričevati o Klemnovi zgodbi ter odkrito spregovoriti o ljubezni, strahu in preizkušnjah, ki jih je sinova diagnoza prinesla v njihovo življenje. Ne skriva čustev, padcev in trenutkov, ko si kot moški in oče ni zmogel priznati, da potrebuje pomoč.

Svoja doživljanja deli v osebnih zapisih na različnih spletnih portalih. V podkastu Odločena na Valu 202 je širši javnosti zaupal tudi najgloblje strahove, pomisleke in dvome.

V knjigi This Child Will Live z iskrenostjo in mestoma humorjem pripoveduje o bremenu, pod katerim je večkrat omahnil, ter ljubezni, zaradi katere vztraja. Knjiga je izraz globokega spoštovanja do Klemnovega življenja in poklon ženi Luciji ter njunim otrokom.
