Exercising honorary patronage over the event, Monika Wielichowska, Deputy Speaker of the Sejm, emphasized the role of conscious, empathetic women in caring for the condition of their loved ones.
- It is the woman's attentiveness that determines the health of offspring, partner, seniors. It is the woman who is more likely to form healthy habits, keep an eye on her children's vaccination calendar and take care of them when they get sick. Unfortunately, there are times when she no longer has enough time and strength to remember her own needs.
