Bring Chris Home

Donation protected
While traveling overseas, it was recognized that Chris was in need of psychiatric care. On July 3rd Chris was admitted to a psychiatric hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam. All necessary steps have been taken and all the appropriate contacts have been reached. Please know that what needs to be done is, and now we wait until the day comes to bring Chris home safe to us, and receive a higher standard of care. But for this, we need your help.

Chris is safe where he is at and is receiving the best care available to him. Until he is able to travel, he will remain in the hospital in Hanoi. Due to the severity of Chris’s situation he will need traveling partners.

The immediate plan is to fly one of Chris’s military friends, as well as a second travel partner out to be with him. The goal is that Chris will be able to leave shortly after his friends arrival. Depending on how soon Chris can leave after they arrive, we will need to assist in accommodations for their stay (board, food etc).

The donations will go towards paying for Chris’s hospital stay/treatment, Chris’s flight home, two friends to fly to Vietnam and bring Chris to California, as well as fly the travel partners home. Some funds have been raised so the goal listed is what is still needed. 

Anything can help. Thank you for taking the time to read this and for donating or sharing to heIp us get Chris home. We all love him and just want to bring him home safely.

If you are willing and able to contribute to this method of Chris’s retrieval please consider making a donation or sharing this post.
