He was driving a Canadian Military Gwagen, which he credits with saving his life due to its strong construction. Shortly after the attack and when folks were contacting me for his hospital mailing address to send well wishes, several people asked me if they could contribute to a fund of some sort to help him out. Since he's back among us and recuperating and rehabilitating nicely, I told him about the offers and asked if there was anything that we could do to help. Here is his response: >Thanks for the kind offer. Although I loathe being a charity case, I >understand where the desire to help comes from. >In Canada all my medical expenses for the rest of my life are >covered, including costs of prosthetics and even vehicle modifications. > >So the only area that I would need help in is in some house >renovations. Specifically the basement - I would like to make it into >a guest room and a play room for my son Simon. [Ed: Simon is almost 7 yrs old. DUTCH] > > Paul If you would like to contribute towards the "Mercedes-Benz Gwagen Guest and Play Rooms" in Paul's basement, he has set up a PayPal account where you can make a contribution. The email address for payment is: ptepaul at yahoo dot co dot uk When you go to the PayPal site, there's also a place to include a personal message to Paul. If you don't want to use PayPal, I have his home address. Contact me by email, and I'll send it to you. Any contribution you make would be strictly between you and Paul. What do you think? Would you like to contribute to help a fellow Gwagen family member who has given a lot towards making this world a safer place? Wouldn't it be neat for his guests to stay and his son to play in rooms funded by owners of the vehicle that saved his life? Go to PayPal and show him your gratitude for his service!
