Story
Whilst out in Cyprus attending mine and my partners wedding, Chris decided to go on a night out with his brother and friends. On this night out is when the inexcusable actions of some small minded despicable people occurred and changed our lives for the worst. Chris and the others got caught up in a fight against some local bar staff in which injuries were inflicted to all, including all friends and family he was with. The disgusting behaviour from the culprit's has been recognised and dealt with by the Cypriot authorities but the nightmare continues. Chris was left with a bleed on his brain along with swelling and bruising, in turn sending him to hospital and being placed in an induced coma. Operations have occurred so far and slight recoveries are happening. This was over a week ago now and even though Chris has made some miracle like recoveries so far he is still not fully conscious and responding, he still has a long way to go to fully recover and no time limit has been placed on when he will be home safe and sound back with all his family. As a result of this situation his family have joined his bedside throughout this in Cyprus, leaving jobs, families, bills and other things behind to be with him which means money is needing to be spent to be by his side and also pay for his care. I am looking for people to help out Chris and his family in a time of need and support to help fund this continuous care and help recoup funds being spent everyday by all to stay by his side and also make sure they, including Chris, do not come home to any money issues and he can continue to gain the best rehabilitation for him to return back to the gentle, fun loving, caring guy he went out to Cyprus as! Please appreciate the discretion of the family at this difficult time and refrain from publicising this on social media as this is not what this is about.
