Piotr Lisek posted a moving confession on Instagram:
I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemies, and I feel very sorry for people who suffered such a loss as we did. Helplessness is something terrible, and happiness must be appreciated, because it is too precious and fragile. A small, innocent part of us and a part in us died, and I, waking up, pray that the previous ones were just a nightmare. I don’t know if I have ever experienced or witnessed such suffering. As a father, I don’t want to imagine what the mother feels. I am grateful for my daughter Liliana and son Paweł, because they give us superhuman strength today for tomorrow.
In his further words, the athlete asked for respect for privacy:
There is no good time for such a message (…). I have undertaken such a post solely for the purpose of ending “this” grapevine, in which every inquiry only tears open a wound that I see no chance of healing. With each passing day I realize that delaying this topic simply makes no sense.
