Please Help Me Get Back Home From Overseas ICU
Donation protected
Hi, I'm Ki. Leaving South Korea for Australia at a young age, I've spent more than 27 years far from the place I once called home. Despite my dedication to hospitality roles like store management and barista work, loneliness often clouds my days. Recently, I embarked on a rare three-week trip to China, hoping to escape the monotony. However, my journey spiraled into despair as illness struck with ferocity. Stranded in a foreign hospital, hallucinating and falling unconscious, I face a bleak reality without insurance to cushion the blow of medical bills due to not having any travel insurance or medical insurance. Additionally, being a foreigner makes my hospital bills become higher than it already is compared to Chinese citizens. During my treatment here, I was diagnosed with sepsis, acute gastroenteritis, and multiple organ dysfunctions, which included my liver, requiring urgent medical treatment which landed me in the ICU. With each passing day, the ache of separation from my family gnaws at my soul, leaving me desperate for any glimmer of hope to guide me back to their loving embrace. All I ask is for some support from the community around me. Please, I miss my family
