Story
Our brother, Ian, known as Barney, lives in Thailand. He's been on his own all through the pandemic. We thought he was doing okay - or so it seemed. On Saturday, 17th October, he jumped from a balcony 6 storeys high. He sent no messages and gave no indication that he was suffering so badly. He survived but has catastrophic injuries: a broken pelvis, two broken arms and shattered both legs. He has to have one foot amputated in order to save his life. Thailand has no NHS and he has no insurance. Any support you could offer towards his medical costs would be gratefully received. We need to get him home. The picture shows us in happier times in our youth.
