The following is from the parents of the two boys injured last week in Kerister, Hungary, as they were travelling to the Kever of Reb Shayala Kerister:
Thank you to all those who have so kindly donated to our fundraising effort. We are so grateful.
We have so far raised 6,500 but we still need to reach our goal of another £33,300 in the next 8 hours as BH we have managed to reduce the initial costs from £70,000 to £39,800.
We really do need your support now more than ever to help us reach this goal to get the boys home safe and back to a London hospital for immediate and better care.
IY’H the boys are expected tomorrow in the care of private medical individuals. With your help we can make this happen and ensure that they are in the best hands to make a speedy and full recovery.
As most of you know, 2 boys were involved in a horrific crash in Hungary last Wednesday on their way back from davening at Reb Shayle’s kever. They were in a critical condition and were put into an induced coma. B”H we have seen miracles and they can now be flown back to London.
We would like to clarify that the boys had taken out travel insurance and so their repatriation costs should of course be covered. However, the insurance company is trying to avoid paying out and is using “small print” excuses. We have a solicitor on the case but it may take a few weeks to settle this. The boys need urgent medical care which the Hungarian hospital is not equipped to adequately provide. If the insurance company pays out, then we will be in a position to return all money donated. If money’s have been donated annoumesly we will donate the money to Hatzola UK.
