Your help is once again required...

Ok, first thing to point out here is that this post is by me & hasn’t come from Andrew & Adele in any way.  They are very humbled, astounded and eternally grateful for the level of support this group has provided, emotionally, psychologically and of course financially.

I’m sure all of us can’t begin to imagine what this has been like for them, but still it goes on.  For various reasons we haven’t been able to share everything on here,  the group is so big it’s impossible to police who is on so it has to be treated like a public forum, but hopefully we can at some point as there is a lot to tell.

Suffice to say that the recent decision of the court isn’t the end.

So to the crux of this post which I’m sure you were expecting.  I think we need to raise more funds.  We are at another milestone in the saga.  We knew that the fundraising would stop when Adam got back to the UK, but we all know there is a much bigger picture.  We also knew there was very little hope of getting anything from Tinsley (who did do it by the way, whatever the court say).  Andrew & Adele would never ask for any more financial help, yet they haven’t mentioned on here what sort of costs they have had to incur in the 2 years since Adam was brought back.  Being their close friend I do know.

The shambolic court case required their presence in court quite a few times which meant flights from UK each time & the extra expenses of food & board;  Thai lawyers and advisers need to be paid for;  every single court session was in Thai & so had to be translated to have any kind of hope of understanding it;  advice on what to do next has just cost another £900 and that’s before anything is actually done!  Add to this the injustice of Adam’s income being taken away, the costs involved in daily visits and devices to aid his rehabilitation (not covered by NHS) and that’s before we even start with Ben.

So, my thinking is that most of the people on here are here because they know and care about Adam.  Adam’s parents are now key to everything for Adam.  So we need to support them.  It’s been 2 years since we all put our hands in our pockets and produced a miracle, let’s do it again.  Please.
