In the Poznan protests in 1956, she went to the hospital despite having the day off. Hearing the cries of the injured, she went into the street to help victims. She was hit by a stray bullet in the midst of the shooting. "I'll never forget the chanting crowd, the euphoria when the huge red communist flag fell from the roof of the building," she said years later. When questioned at the trial, she confessed that the police were the first to shoot, contradicting the official version of events. She received the Florence Nightingale award in 2005. In 2007 she ran for parliament on the Civic Platform. In 2010 she supported Ryszard Grobelny's candidacy for mayor of Poznan. (en)
