Over 15k have been raised for an Irish man who is on life support in Slovakia after suffering from organ failure.
Ciaran Bradley, from Dublin, has suffered from organ failure while visiting Slovakia with his girlfriend.
To help cover his medical costs, his step-father, Derek Tobin, has set up a GoFundMe campaign.

“Ciaran is battling on life support in a Slovakian hospital at present after he had multiple organ failure while over there visiting his girlfriend's poorly dad. Ciaran was diagnosed with arthritis when he was sixteen years old and has been on very heavy medication all his young life. These have now taken their toll on this 38-year-old body. His pancreas has failed, and his kidneys affected, along with other organs, as the toxins move through his body. He has passed the 24, 48 and 72 hours that were said were critical, but this is going to be a long road to recovery,” read a note from the organiser.
In an updated posted on the fundraiser page, the organiser said: "Myself, Pauline and Diana were with Ciaran today in the hospital in Slovakia. He is still recovering and receiving the best possible care from all the staff. Ever so slight improvements, but we'll take all good news. Us being here was only made possible with all your kind donations. Ciaran is a fighter and we'll all be with him all the way. Thanks again from the bottom of our hearts."
