Hello. Let me apologize in advance for the lengthy, and rather desperate, nature of this post. My father is 80 years old, born and raised in Prague. He has just been diagnosed with Stage IV Colon Cancer with metastasis to the liver and lymph nodes. Dad’s name is Karel and he has a brother Henry (Jindrich) who lives in Louny. Henry does not speak English, and sadly, I do not speak Czech. I’m praying that someone on the BBS has a connection with bilingual family member or friend in Louny who can help deliver some regular medical updates on my father’s condition. It would have to be by phone or in person as Henry does not have a computer. If you can help me out in anyway, it would be greatly appreciated. Please email me directly or post a reply. Thanks.

Hi, i'm sorry i cant help directly but i realise you need to try as many avenues as possible to increase the chance of finding someone who can, so try:
www.expats.cz
or
www.aj.cz (at the bottom of the page is a penpals section where you can search for people in Louny)
I recently needed to find someone in Ostrava, and found the right person by searching skype, but that's a long shot...anyway all the best at this difficult time. _________________ Have i been here too long? |
