    Story

    Our dad, Ronnie Slade, contracted a flu virus whilst visiting a friend in Moldova. This lead to further complications leading to him being in a near-terminal state on life support with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome & Renal Failure. The hospital are being incredibly helpful & doing as much as they can but being a poor country they can only do so much as certain drugs & treatments are in short supply.

    We have an airlift company on standby ready to fly out to collect him

      Update from the Page owner

      Our 27 day ordeal is finally over! Last night we finally got to welcome our Dad back home! Yesterday morning Dad flew back to the UK with a medical escort. When Dad arrived at the hospital 4 weeks ago, they were fighting to keep him alive and we spent days not knowing whether he would pull through or not and then somehow against the odds Dad began to improve. In the weeks to follow he has made a miraculous recovery, which we put down to not only his incredible fighting spirit and the relentless efforts of the hospital but also to the massive amounts of support, prayer and positive thoughts that were being sent his way by you all. We have only been able to get him home thanks to the incredible support we have received and the hundreds of generous donations! There is no way we could have done this alone financially or emotionally. There will be a longer version of this post shared on Facebook listing out all of our thank yous. THANK YOU! Ronnie, Carly, Holly, Laura & Luke x

      8 In order for us to get moving with the repatriation, we need to pay the company that we will be using as soon as we are able. Therefore as of 23:59 tonight Just Giving will be closing down our page and ending the campaign, which should release the funds to us within 7 days

      When he pulls through, your dad will be even more proud of you than he must already be. This is a wonderful thing you are doing for him, and I find it very moving. I wish you a very happy outcome
