Matt Robinson has been a friend of mine for a very long time and he is a person I respect as an actor, writer, and chef. He studied culinary at Johnson and Wales and he worked in restaurants before he decided to take up acting and writing. He is the man responsible for the awesome burgers over at Jacoby's Burgers in Haebangchon and he has made some amazing meals for his friends at various cooking functions.Right now, Matt is in trouble and he needs our help. He is currently in the hospital and he needs surgery. Without it, he may die and because he is uninsured and without means to pay, the hospital is threatening to force him to leave without the necessary surgery.
I have made a donation to him and I would encourage you to do the same. Please help my friend.
You can go to this facebook page for more information on how to send payment.
Thanks,
Dan
Matt Robinson is an American ex-pat who has been teaching in Korea for about 3 years. Recently, due to conflicting medications and gangrene from a previous surgery, he almost died. He was taken to a hospital in Haebonchan where he is in pain, awaiting the surgery he needs.
This hospital is threatening him. They are saying that if he does not give them 10 million won by tomorrow, they will kick him out without the surgery. This means that he will most likely need an amputation or (worse yet) he will die. He has no means to go home, nor is he physically able to get on a plane.
I donated money before I saw this post, and, as I stated here, I did so with a bit of apprehension, since I've been duped before.
ReplyDeleteBut now I feel much better knowing that someone legit (such as yourselves) can vouch that this whole situation is legit. Unless, of course, you guys are part of the grand grift. ;)
In that post I linked above, I asked some pointed questions about how Matt got where he is, but they were not asked in a way to bash Matt but to get to the bottom of how to prevent (through warnings to others, to changes in the system, etc.) to prevent this kind of on-going occurrence in the future. If you can address any of those comments/questions without violating Matt's privacy, I'd be most appreciative.
Also, all of us who have posted on his plight might appreciate some updates.
