Hello, my name is Derek and I've set up this gofundme fund to help my step son, Ciaran.

Ciaran is battling on life support in a Slovakian hospital at present after he had multiple organ failure while over there visiting his girlfriend's poorly dad. Ciaran was diagnosed with arthritis when he was sixteen years old and has been on very heavy medication all his young life. These have now taken there toll on this 38 year olds body. His pancreas has failed and his kidneys affected, along with other organs, as the toxins move through his

body.

He has passed the 24, 48 and 72 hours that were said were critical, but this is going to be a long road to recovery.

Ciarans brother and sister are out with him now but will be home next week and myself and Pauline are booked to fly out Friday, all thanks to your great donations.

We don't know how long this will take and we need to take the stress and worry away from Ciaran when he comes around .

You're wonderful donations mean we can be by Ciarans side right now as we are currently in Bratislava. We again thank wholeheartedly his girlfriend Diana, who has kept up twice daily visits to the man she loves, to give us regular updates.
