Adam's emergency hit by a bus fund!

Donation protected
Adam was hit by a bus! Send your support! Adam needs your help returning home from Daegu, South Korea!

Here's what happened:

- Bus hit Adam and he fell
- Front wheels of the bus ran over Adam's legs
- Breaks Adam's right ankle and left femur

Adam was rushed the the hospital where he went through surgeries to reconstruct and repair the damage! Currently he is going through some rehab and therapy while in the hospital.


What's the plan?

As Adam's time is Korea is coming to a close, this incident will make coming home increasingly difficult.  Adam may have to spend the next several weeks to months in a wheelchair. His family back home plan to:

- Send 1-2 family members to assist in packing up his apartment
- Provide basic living assistance
- Mailing his items home
- Helping Adam through the airport and on the airplane

What are our challenges?

Having 2 broken legs makes packing up life pretty darn challenging. There is only a short window between Adam finishing his teaching and the expiration of his work visa. A ton of work is required like making a bank transfer, mailing 5 years of possessions and traveling.

What are we using the funds for?

The goal is to assist in the cost that changed due to the medical condition.

-
The first allocation of donations will go to sending a family member or two. As of this writing the cost is exactly $4,172. Unfortunately for our situation the 2018 Olympics sent the prices of all flights skyrocketing.
$4,172

- From the airport the family support member will travel by bus to his location
$100

- A wheelchair for the airplane travel for Adam 
$751.08

-
Incidentals expenses related to having to travel with 2 broken legs
$250

-
Upgrading Adam's seat during the flight for extra leg room. 
$1,600

Total needed help: $6,378.08
