Oh Helen, how awful for him. Not something that usually happens in Spain either. Sending my best wishes to him - what a terrible shame. Natalia x

Good to know that they were insured Helen but of course that doesn't really help with their health problems. Hope it all gets sorted for them with as little fuss as possible. And hope they catch the b*ggers that did it! Jeanette x

How sad and upsetting for them, do hope they manage to come through this without it causing further health problems. What a dreadful shock for them to get home to.
