Update on Randy – Paralyzed & Stranded in a Foreign Country

For those who are unfamiliar with this story, Randy is my nephew. He went to Cambodia in July and was planning on teaching English to the Cambodian people. He got established with an apartment, a motorcycle for transportation, and was about to begin fulfilling his dream.

Then it happened.

He had a massive stroke Aug. eighth leaving him totally paralyzed on one side; unable to speak, eat, or do anything for himself. He has been hospitalized ever since.

Through family and friends a small part of his hospital bill in Cambodia has been paid and because of the resources running dry my sister was forced to go on Go Fund Me and Give Send Go donation sites asking for help. And dealing with the Embassy, hospital, and bureaucrats has been a nightmare, to put it mildly.

With all our prayers, and the donations and prayers from you all – God has answered our prayers!

RANDY IS ON THE PLANE AS I TYPE HEADING BACK HOME TO CALIFORNIA. Praise be to God and Hallelujah.
He has a nurse with him and will soon be arriving in San Francisco today. He will be rushed straight to U.C. Davis Medical Center for his continued care.

There are no words that can express our gratitude to those who have helped through your prayers and donations to make this happen. His journey through this chapter in his life is far from over but with God and loving support he’ll make it.

Once he gets settled I’ll have an address available for those who would like to send him cards of encouragement. Until then – THANK YOU AND MAY GOD RICHLY BLESS YOU.

    • Thank you Mitch. Your prayers are greatly appreciated. He is being cared for at UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento and making small progress but we are thrilled with the progress he has made. My sister is in the process of getting him medical insurance and MediCal and trying to locate a facility that will provide for his needs as a more permanent place. Please keep her in your prayers too as this has about done her in.

      Blessings to you and thank you again.
