thanks all, called and cancelled all my cards... but mine and Jaynes bank said sorry nothing they will do until we are back in the UK...
Spent most of the night in the police station, but not much will come of this... she is caught right on CCTV going in our room as soon as i took Jayne to the toilet...

So thanks to Belinda who bought us dinner and has been so much support... yes again TIMS is great.... Everyone else left i.e. Geya tours etc... so we were on our own with no food no money.... not sure i like this hospitality...

I will meet with people at the hospital to give them a chance, but if nothing comes of it I will be plastering NEGATIVE publicity against Bulgaria and will be heading to every paper i can in the UK/Canada and the US

I can't believe we have just been left after what has happened...

What a nightmare! First thought is, can you not borrow enough dosh to rind someone back home to perhaps wire some money out to you?

Genuinely hope someone from the hospital gets off their bottom and comes to your aid, shocking that no one has! xx
28/07/10, 04/10/10, 16/11/10 - CCSVi Dopplers x3 ** 12/10/10 - Poland procedure. Symptoms worsened. No improvement.
13/02/12 - Wheldon ABX protocol for 1.5yrs. Fairly stable but no improvement. Unable to source alternate ABX needed.

Geya Tours has sorted us for now with some money, they are really trying to make the effort now, Please don't do anything rash as a result, just upset feeling lost, I am having treatment today and will feel awful if i get great results and people are cancelling, please only be aware and vigilant, as of this point Joseph has been amazing and the hospital have been great, Geya Tours is learning from this and learning

Hi Rick,

I'm really sorry for your and Jayne's misfortune. I hope she will get better soon.
I was in Bulgaria in June. I and others from the UK, Greece and Canada had the best experience. Dr's Grozdinski and Petrov are the best. The hospital is top notch, and the nurses' were wonderful. The hospital hotel and the Greenville hotel were very clean, comfortable and very accomadating.
I want people to know there are different experiences, some good and some bad.

These posts are all over the place. First the experience is great and then BAM down to crap! I don't get why people are being asked to PM for details. We're all hanging by our fingernails to hear how she is.
