Our dad, Paul (Rab) is a father of four who was in Bali on holiday when he was brutally assaulted by a group of Australians who are yet to be identified. They beat and kicked him multiple times putting him in a life threatening condition

Our family has travelled to Bali to be by his side, and we have been doing everything we can to fund his treatment ourselves. We never intended to start a GoFundMe, but we have reached a point where we need support.

From this Paul suffered internal bleeding and 10 broken ribs, has undergone three major surgeries, had his spleen removed, required four blood transfusions, and currently has drains in both his lungs and abdomen as a result of the internal injuries and bleeding from the attack.

He has now been in ICU for 10 days and remains sedated following his third surgery. We are hoping he can come out of sedation tonight.

At this point in time we have currently payed over $71,000 AUD for hospital treatment. Paul needs at least another week in ICU, costing approximately $4,000–$5,000 per day to maintain his ICU care. Once his drains are removed, we are expecting it to be another two weeks before he can be assessed and cleared to fly home.

If you are in a position to help, any donation, no matter how small, will make a huge difference towards Paul’s treatment and recovery.

If you aren’t able to donate, please don’t feel any pressure at all. Sharing this page, sending a message, or simply keeping Paul in your thoughts means just as much to us.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Paul and our family through this incredibly difficult time. ❤️
