I am asking friends and family to help my brother in law and his family through a hard time. Thiago has been ill with pneumonia the last few weeks in Brazil and state hospital has misdiagnosed, we had a private consultation for him while here and found he had a ruptured stomach ulcer for 3 days and was a miracle he lived! As Brazil isn’t fortunate like us to have a nhs the costs for his operation and recovery are high and his family will need support while Thiago recovers and can not work. We managed to get a starting amount together and convince the private hospital to go ahead with the operation and will find a way to cover the other 10k. If you know me I always give to help and rarely ask for anything.

My sister and brother in law and there 2 young sons (my nephews) have helped make my time here in Brazil amazing and were so kind and accommodating to me. I need help to support the family through a hard time with paying for the remainder of operation costs, ongoing care and support for Thiago and the family. Will greatly appreciate any donations you can make x
