My name is Craig, and I'm reaching out with an urgent plea for help for a kind man named David. He is currently in Thailand, facing a rapidly progressing and undiagnosed medical crisis, and he needs to be medically repatriated to the United Kingdom to get the care that can save his life.

Just two months ago, David was living a simple life in beautiful Thailand, supported by a small UK pension. He was independent—able to walk, eat, and care for himself.

Tragically, his health took a sudden and dramatic turn. It began with a complete loss of strength in his legs, confining him to a wheelchair. In the weeks that followed, his condition has deteriorated at an alarming rate. Today, David is unable to stand or perform any task on his own. He has lost the use of his hands and his arms grow weaker by the day, meaning he must be fed and given water to drink. He requires assistance with all personal hygiene, things we all take for granted like showering or brushing his teeth.

David has no living family or friends to turn to for support. For the past two months, I have been his sole support, taking him to numerous hospitals and clinics in a desperate search for answers. His small savings and pension have been completely exhausted by four hospital stays and multiple clinic visits.

We finally have a small glimmer of hope. A doctor has issued a "Fit to Fly" certificate, and the British Embassy has arranged for his admission into a healthcare facility upon his arrival in the UK. However, there's a critical gap in this plan: David is too weak to fly alone and requires a medical assistant to accompany him. The embassy is unable to provide this assistance.

This is where we face an impossible situation. David's funds are gone. He cannot afford the flight with a medical assistant to get back to the UK, nor can he afford to continue any medical care here in Thailand. Without immediate help, he will not have money to live, let alone get the diagnosis and treatment he so desperately needs.

How Your Donation Will Help

We have one goal: to get David back to the UK where he can be properly diagnosed and receive the long-term medical care he needs to have a chance at recovery. Your generous donation will be used to cover the following urgent costs:

Flight for David and a Medical Assistant: Covering the cost of airfare from Thailand to the UK for David and a qualified professional to ensure his safety during travel.

Medical and Travel Expenses: This will cover any immediate medical needs for the journey and ground transportation.

David's life has been turned upside down in a matter of weeks. He has gone from being an able-bodied person to someone who is completely dependent on others for his most basic needs. Your support at this crucial moment can make all the difference and give him a fighting chance.

Thank you for taking the time to read David's story. Any contribution, no matter how small, will bring us one step closer to getting him the help he needs. We are so grateful for your time and compassion.

This is David a couple years before his illness.
