In an interview in “Dzień Dobry TVN”, the 65-year-old recalled these events.

Suffering does not ennoble. This is a serious injury from which there is no recovery. At least I didn’t succeed and I don’t really believe that anyone could, but I wish others could. I don’t know how to do it. Of course, life goes on. The sun is still rising, you have to go to the store for parsley, etc. There is no caressing. However, it is and always will be

In the book, he called his second wife and mother of the deceased Marysia “M”. “M. (…) took on the huge burden of being with a seriously ill girl every day, so I shouldn’t write anything more, because whatever made us diverge and finally part ways, whatever triggered another shot in the back of the head , what matters is that we at least passed the parenting test in the extreme conditions of leaving our shared child, and only sometimes I wonder why I still remember those shots in the back of the head, not only in terms of relationships, but in general, those moments of shame, disgust, humiliation , discomfort, bad luck, and I suspect that memory is not only a deformer, but also has its own preferences, it makes you want to shout: ‘How jealous memory is and how fiercely it clings to the material of its everyday work!'” – he confessed.

After his second marriage broke up, the man had to face another tragedy in his life. During a visit to a urologist, he was diagnosed with a malignant tumor. Fortunately, the operation saved his life.

After the death of 21-year-old Maria Łobodziński, he started a relationship with a much younger woman, but the relationship did not last. “Some time after the breakup, he threw me into the depths of feelings for a girl twenty-one years younger than me, someone who could be my daughter by birth certificate,” he confessed.

The age difference may have finally turned out to be decisive when I made the difficult decision to break up, it was the only time in my life when I whistled the end of the match myself, and I did it with a heavy heart, because my sympathy and tenderness towards that girl had not disappeared, but I felt that I needed to share everyday life with someone closer to me in terms of generation, especially since I was starting to feel ailments typical of more mature people.
