Story
Bring Christine Home for Christmas
We are launching this appeal to help us bring Christine home for Christmas.
We are the family of Christine Stockdale who is currently receiving life-saving treatment in Turkey after falling ill while on holiday.
We need to get Christine home to help her make a full recovery.
All donations to this page will go directly towards Christine’s medically supported flight back to the UK.
Christine’s treatment has been paid for by us, her family. We are trying to raise enough money to buy a medically supported flight back to the UK. We can’t afford it ourselves, and as a family we will struggle to fund the ongoing lifesaving treatment in Turkey.
More About Christine
Christine Stockdale is currently in critical condition in hospital in Turkey. After taking ill whilst on holiday with her husband, John, the mother of two received an urgent operation and is now being treated following various complications. Tragically, Christine was due to receive a minor operation in the UK, but due to NHS backlogs and emergencies this was cancelled three times. Christine's husband was given the 'ok' to travel to Turkey by hospital staff and where informed that the operation could be carried out when they returned to the UK. Turkish Doctors have since confirmed that the operation was urgently required, and Christine would have certainly fallen ill at home as a result.
Christine, from Middlesbrough, dedicated her working life to the students at Middlesbrough College as well as raising her two children, and devoting many hours to her two granddaughters.
Christine is a wonderful and much-loved wife, mother, grandmother, sister and friend.
Christine’s husband and son are with her in Turkey and are being supported by the British Embassy in Antalya who are aiding with translation and advice but are unable to support financially.
It’s our dream to bring Christine home for Christmas so she can receive the life saving treatment at home where she belongs. It’s all we want.
Anyone who knows Christine would describe her as the best of people. She’s entirely selfless. She would do anything for anyone. A loving and warm woman, who’s always put her family first. She really is a special person.
We appreciate the smallest donation. We know that everyone is stretched right now and Christmas is just around the corner.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for anything you are able to give.
Much love,
Christine’s family
Claire, Chloe, Jodie, John & Dean Stockdale

2 years agoHello, I just wanted to update you all. My Nana passed away on the 23d of December in Turkey. As a family we are all devastated, we will be using the funds to go towards the repatriation which costs around £4305 so we can get her home safely. Thank you for all of your support, we are so grateful. With your donations, we are able to get her home. We can have a funeral and give her the send-off that she deserves! I wish my nana could be here to see all the love and support people have given her through this hard time. Thanks again, Chloe x

2 years agoHello, I want to give everyone that has shared and donated an update on my Nanas condition. Doctors have managed to reduce my Nanas oxygen quite a lot and have managed with the support of a ventilator, medication and operations to reduce the infection in her pancreas and lungs. Doctors are hopeful that she will recover from this. Please share and donate as we can’t afford the medical bills and they are mounting up a medically supported flight isn’t possible as she isn’t strong enough. Thank you so much for all of your help and support ❤️❤️❤️
