The family of Angela AgudoTHE young Valencian who is in a coma admitted to the intensive care unit of a hospital Thailand Since October 6, after a motorcycle accident, she has not given up and continues to look for funds and support to repatriate her to Spain.
Angela’s fight for survival continues despite the fact that in recent days the family has received the worst news: The government will not collaborate to bring the hospitalized woman to Spain.
This was conveyed by the Minister of Defense herself, Marguerite Roblesat the Town Hall of Godelleta, the town of Ángela, after the family and neighbors asked for help from the Government to provide a medical plane.
The information, put forward by the newspaper The provinces and confirmed by EL ESPAÑOL, is a disappointment for those close to the young woman, who consider that “the government has left us stranded”.
Without government help
The family requested government help to return the young woman to Spain on a medical plane, with the intention that she could continue her convalescence and treatment in a Valencian hospital.
“We need a solution, whether it comes from the Department of Defense or elsewhere.but let them act now because at the end of the day we need this answer and to be 100% sure that we will have this help,” the brother said a few days before learning of the refusal.
However, Minister Robles herself spoke with local authorities in Godelleta to confirm that they did not have these planes because they were on a mission to the Canary Islands.
Angela’s progress is favorable and she is ready to fly to Spain. The family managed to raise more than 300,000 euros in recent days to help him cope with the high cost of his hospitalization, which amounts to 5,000 euros per dayand his return to Valencia.
For this reason, last week the fundraiser opened on a crowdfunding platform was closed after reaching the initially set goal.
Angela has not suffered any seizures in recent days and this is positive news that her family and friends are clinging to. Last week, he underwent a tracheotomy which went well, according to his relatives.

In the young woman’s town, Godelleta, an emotional support rally took place last week in front of the town hall to raise awareness of the situation facing Angela and her family.
With the motto Godelleta wants Angela at homethe family installed a tarpaulin on the balcony of City Hall to raise awareness of this cause. “A day that reflects the solidarity and affection of our municipality“, expressed the council on social networks.
The young woman’s brother was “very grateful” to the neighbors for how they showed solidarity with Ángela and highlighted that the mayor of Godelleta, Amparo Pardo, contacted them “from the first moment” to offer them every his energy and support.
