Story
My brother is 67 years old, lives in Thailand, has no health insurance and the NHS are unable to help. He was initially misdiagnosed as suffering from Bells Palsy and after a further scan it was found he had experienced a Lacunar Stroke. This type of stroke occurs in 1 out of 5 strokes. His blood flow has been restricted and the deep brain structure deprived. Recovery can vary and we do not yet know the extent of what this will be - damage to the brain, long term care or hopefully a supportive recovery period. The quality of life my brother will have depends on the money we can raise. Please help us. Thank you for taking the time to read our story.
