Help get Alan McDonald life saving treatment

This is an urgent plea for help to save our brother, son, partner and friend, Alan.

Alan McDonald is from Newcastle, County Down - where he grew up with his Mum and Dad, Geraldine and Davy, and his sister Anna. The most kind, loyal and happy person, loved by everyone who knows him. 

 

He has been living in Christchurch, New Zealand with his fiancée, Sophie, unable to return home for the last two years due to the pandemic. During the last year, Alan developed severe health issues which have led us to this point. 

Alan has been diagnosed with an exceptionally rare and life threatening disease called Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). 

 

We desperately need to get him home to Northern Ireland, where he can access life saving treatment.

 

But he's too ill to travel yet. Until he is strong enough to come home, he needs to receive this vital medication in New Zealand where he must find the funds himself to cover the cost. Without it, he won't get well or get home.

This is where you can help him. Every single donation or share will make a difference.

Please, please help us get Alan well enough, so we can bring him home.
