My dad suffered a life-altering accident abroad several weeks ago and is now in a rehab centre in Toronto. A friend started a Go Fund Me to help with his medical bills abroad. Please see the link below.
Thank you to those who have already contributed and/or shared the link.
This is heartbreaking: my friend’s 68-year-old dad became quadriplegic after a freak accident overseas. Without travel insurance, the medical bills are crushing and they’re racing to get him home for rehab. Please consider helping or sharing. ❤️
