WHAT HAPPENED

On the 18th December, Swede fell 33ft through a roof in Uluwatu, Bali, Indonesia, while trying to get his hat back from a monkey who had stolen it seconds earlier.

It’s a miracle he is alive but is now Paralyzed from the chest down. He has tingling feeling in his arms and hands only and is in need immediate medical care.

WHY WE NEED THE MONEY

His first diagnosis is that he has C7 spinal damage. His spine is in shock and swollen .He needs a MRI scan urgently, but the hospital where he is at are trying to delay it until 26th December. We have been advised by other doctors there is no reason he shouldn’t get the MRI straight away.

He was moved without consent from DMIC Hospital in Denpasar to a smaller local hospital where there are no specialists to treat him. No one from either hospital can tell us why he was moved.

Unfortunately, many hospitals in Bali see foreigners in medical situations as a means to make money and often delay vital treatment to make more cash.

We now desperately need to get him moved by MEDEVAC to either Taiwan, Singapore or Malaysia where some of the best spinal surgeons in Asia reside.

Time is of the essence here as we are advised the longer we leave it the less likely he is to recover or even walk again

WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR

It will be roughly round $40-60,000 to get Swede safely out of Bali. That will cover all the costs for a medical evacuation out of Bali and into the hands of a surgeon who can fix his spinal cord.

Surgery including all medicine, titanium pieces and other artificial parts can add up to $25,000 USD
The imported pieces can cost up to $15,000 USD

All other costs will be for ongoing rehabilitation.
