Please help to bring Jordan home from Crete

Hello my name is Sarah and I am Jordan’s sister. We as a family are starting this go fund me page to help bring Jordan home after he has had a devastating accident on holiday in Crete.

Jordan and his friend Nathan booked what they thought was to be a fun filled holiday, when in reality it turned into what only we can describe as anybody’s nightmare.

On the day of the accident Jordan and Nathan decided to have a chilled day at the hotel instead of going to a boat party they had pre booked. They sat down for lunch and a couple of drinks and then decided to play ball in the pool, whilst retrieving the ball nathan has turned around to see Jordan unconscious in the water. As a family we are eternally grateful to Nathan for his quick thinking and reaction times saving Jordan’s life by preforming CPR and getting further help. Nathan is a true hero and without his quick response Jordan would not be here.

Jordans accident has resulted in him dislocating his neck as well as fracturing several cervical bones (requiring emergency surgery) This has led to his spinal cord becoming compressed and resulting in permanent nerve damage in his spinal cord.

We are really hoping for Jordan to regain his mobility from the neck down but at this moment in time we are unsure to how he may recover from his injurys (we are hoping and praying for a miracle).

As you can imagine an accident on this scale in a foreign country and having to undergo major surgery to stabilise his neck, along side with the diagnosis of possible paralysis has had a major affect on Jordan, so our mum flew out straight away to be by his side for emotional support and is now also his main care giver in hospital.

Jordan did take out travel insurance that included high medical cover , but after Nathan and Jordan working as closely as possible with the insurance and answering every inquiry asked of them, the decision was made that Jordan’s policy was void due to alcohol being in his system.

following all the stressful phone calls to the hospital with communication barriers, along with sleepless nights trying to find out information about Jordan’s health/injury , mum flying out to the hospital to be by his side and also chasing medical reports and information for the insurance, we were really hoping for some good news but unfortunately we are now facing a huge financial cost to repatriate Jordan back home from Greece to the UK to receive ongoing medical care in a hospital here in the UK.

Jordan now just really wants to come back home to concentrate on his mental and physical recovery after such challenging and stressful circumstances, and we are all desperate to get him back home.

Any donation is greatly appreciated to help us gain the funds to get him home asap
