Please help Karen get jet wings to get her home

Hi, my name is Isy and my niece is Emily.
Me and my sister Karen went on holiday to Gran Canaria a month ago. A few days after we arrived, Karen became quite unwell. When I went to check on her, she was unconscious and not breathing. I began CPR and got someone to call emergency services immediately. When Karen was admitted to hospital, it was discovered that she had contracted an infection in her lungs. She was critically ill, and the Doctors decided that her best chance of recovery, was to put her on a ventilator, and put her into a medically induced coma. I had to make the most difficult phone call of my life, and let Karen’s daughter Emily know how sick her Mum was. She flew over straight away, and spent her birthday at her Mum’s bedside. The Doctors told us that the outcome wasn’t very positive. We refused to believe this was the end for her, and all of you who know her, knows she’s a fighter, and that’s exactly what she did. In the space of a month, Karen’s been wakened from her coma, and now she’s completely free of the drugs that were keeping her asleep. She’s had a tracheostomy and is still on a ventilator, and all she wants to do now, is go back home to the UK. All of her hospital medical bills have been paid, but getting her back home is a different story. The only way that’ll happen, is by private air ambulance, with a Doctor and Nurse looking after her, until she gets admitted to hospital in her hometown of Plymouth. Emily is still here and has been to every visit twice a day and not missed one visit, please help to get her mum back and get them back together. For this to happen, we need to raise some money. Can you please help? Thank you for reading.
