HELP JOHN RECOVER FROM DEBILITATING CAR CRASH

Donation protected























Dear Friends and Supporters,

My name is Catriona, and today I reach out with a heavy heart on behalf of my dear friend, John Xuereb, whose life has been tragically disrupted by a series of severe medical and accidental crises. John, a highly respected and dedicated health and fitness coach based in Malta, has devoted over 38 years to transforming lives through fitness, nutrition, and mental health. His unwavering commitment has touched many, probably even someone you know.

Tragically, John, who moved to Malta after giving the best of his knowledge and kindness in Canada, is currently facing a dire situation. Just months after enduring critical open-heart surgery in July 2023, which left him financially drained and physically weakened, John suffered a devastating motorcycle accident. This was no minor incident; a car executed an illegal U-turn, crashing into John and leaving him with a shattered tibia, multiple fractures, and extensive surgery involving a seven hour operation to insert plates and screws. The impact of this surgery was compounded by a torn MCL, loss of cartilage, destroyed meniscus and a broken wrist.

The physical toll on John has been immense. To date, he's endured two major surgeries on his leg with a possible third one coming to repair his knee. He is staring down a long, gruelling road to recovery. His surgeon has projected that it might take up to four months before he can walk unaided again. This accident couldn't have come at a worse time, jeopardizing his 38-year career, his ability to earn a living, and his role as a father, as he is now incapacitated and unable to work or even perform daily tasks without assistance.

Facing mounting medical bills, ongoing care costs, and the inability to work, John's situation is urgent. This is why I've started a GoFundMe campaign to rally support during these incredibly tough times. Without insurance, and with the Maltese legal process being slow, the financial burden is immense. We're reaching out to anyone who has been touched by John's generosity, or who understands the profound impact such circumstances can have on a person's life.

Our goal is to raise funds to cover his living expenses, medical costs, childcare for his son, and the intense physiotherapy and other treatments needed for his recovery. Every dollar adds up, and your contribution can truly make a life-changing difference for John and his family. Your generosity will allow him to focus on healing without the constant stress of financial ruin hanging over him.

Please consider helping John. Share his story, contribute if you can, and keep him in your thoughts. You can easily donate through the attached QR code, and remember, no amount is too small. As a gesture of gratitude, we are offering John’s latest e-book, "The Holistic Approach to Health: Achieving Your Goals Through Mental, Spiritual, Nutritional, and Physical Wellness," to all who donate, a testament to his lifelong dedication to helping others achieve their best selves.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any support you can provide. It means the world to John and everyone who loves him.

Warm regards,
Catriona
