Help us get our mum home

Donation protected
Hi I really hate to do this and any one that knows me knows I don’t like to ask for help but on this occasion I really need it
as some of you are aware my 79 year old independent mum went on holiday to turkey recently to meet friends where she became seriously unwell she suffered a heart attack and was intubated and then had to have an emergency triple heart bypass in order to save her life I rushed out to be with her but mum then caught pheumonia and had to be reintubated to rest her lungs after 5 days they re woke her up but then she suffered bleeding to her stomach muscles and was reintubated for a third time mum is now conscious but still critical and in intensive care in a hospital in Antalya I’ve seen her via WhatsApp twice since then for a few minutes she is alone in a strange country and not really aware of what’ she’s been through up until yesterday we thought her insurance was going to pay the bill but we received a call yesterday to say mums policy is void due to not declaring a medical condition pls not she is registered blind and only 40% sight in 1 eye so guessing she didn’t see it 
 we have now been give. A medical bill of £190,000 euros which is impossible to find we just don’t have that sort of money to pay and I’m begging for any help no matter how small as we know these are hard times for everyone at the moment but we need to try and get mum home unfortunately they won’t allow mum to be moved from the hospital until we’ve paid atleast half the amount £100,000 they are holding her passport and giving her no contact from us I have been in touch with the consulate but all they can suggest is a go fund me page to help raise funds
as a family we are devastated and doing everything we can to try and pay in order to repatriated her back to the uk as soon as she is well enough to travel
