Help Us Support Ronni in Her Medical Emergency Abroad

Donation protected
Dear Friends, Family, and Compassionate Strangers,

My name is Dawn Douglas, and I am writing to you in a time of deep distress and concern for my daughter, Ronni Douglas. What started as a family holiday in Turkey has turned into an unimaginable nightmare, and we need your help more than ever.

Our Story

Shortly after arriving in Turkey Ronni started to feel unwell with stomach pains and vomiting. We sought out treatment for this but in the following days her health took a sudden and severe turn. She was rushed to the hospital, where doctors discovered she has a perforated esophagus after throwing up for several days, a life-threatening complication that required immediate intensive care. They advised us the insurance didn't cover the severity of the illness and to seek out other means of payment which leads us to here.

I have had no choice but to return home with our young niece and nephew tonight, leaving Ronni in the ICU, thousands of miles away. The heartbreak of having to leave her side, not knowing what the future holds, is indescribable. I desperately need to get back out to her once the children safe at home with relatives.

Why We Need Your Help

Without proper travel insurance to cover this unforeseen medical crisis, we are facing an overwhelming financial burden. The costs associated with Ronni’s care, including ICU fees, potential surgeries, and her eventual return home, are staggering.

Your generous contributions will help us cover:

The mounting medical expenses as she continues to fight for her life in the ICU.
Arrangements for her safe return home when she is stable enough to travel.
Any additional care she will need once back in the country.

How Your Support Will Make a Difference

Right now, Ronni needs every ounce of strength and support she can get to pull through this terrifying ordeal. The last thing we want her to worry about is the cost of her care. Your donations, no matter the amount, will make a tangible difference in ensuring she gets the treatment she desperately needs.

From the Bottom of Our Hearts
We are deeply grateful for any help you can provide, whether it's a donation or simply sharing our story with others who might be able to assist. This is the most challenging time our family has ever faced, and knowing that we have a community of people who care gives us hope and strength.

Thank you for being there for us and for Ronni in our time of need.

With sincere thanks and hope,
Dawn Douglas and Family
