Help Cover Ashley’s Medical Bills & Bring Her Home

Donation protected
Hi everyone,

It feels surreal writing this, but my family and I desperately need your help.

My little sister, Ashley, who has been living over 5,500 miles away in Seoul, was found unconscious and unresponsive in her apartment on Monday, 24th March.

She’s currently in the ICU with severe dehydration and multiple organ damage. We don’t yet know the full extent of the damage, but we do know it’s serious.

Unfortunately, Ashley’s health insurance recently expired, meaning all medical costs must be paid out-of-pocket. My parents have already paid a £3,000 deposit just for her treatment, and the expenses are quickly adding up.

Estimated Costs:
ICU stay: Up to £1,500 per day
General hospital stay (once stable): Around £500 per day
Tests & scans (X-rays, CT scans, blood work, etc.): £1,000+
Medications & treatments: Ongoing and unpredictable

In just 24 hours, most of that £3,000 deposit may already be gone—and we have no idea how long Ashley will need care. Once she’s stable, we also need to arrange a flight to bring her back home to the UK, which could cost £1,000+.

My parents have recently retired, and as a family, we don’t have an abundance of money to cover these unexpected and overwhelming costs.

If you’re able to donate—no matter how small—it would mean the world to us. If you’re unable to donate, please share this fundraiser to help spread the word.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for the love and support. ♥️
