Perth grandfather stranded in Philippines with bleeding on the brain after wedding

A Perth grandfather is stranded in the Philippines with bleeding on the brain as his family tries desperately to bring him home.

Allan Pages-Oliver's daughters are rallying to organise a mercy flight before it's too late.

The grandfather-of-five travelled to the Philippines in March to get married.

During his honeymooning the coronavirus pandemic took hold, flights were cancelled, and then last week the 67-year-old fell ill.

A CT scan revealed bleeding on the brain from a blockage in a shunt he had put in 30 years ago.

Now the retiree can't walk and can't remember, and his family are battling to get him a medical evacuation, which they say will cost $100,000.

The family says medics in the Philippines can't help.

"I'm just trying to do everything I can but I just don't know what else I can do to get him back," daughter Coby Pages-Oliver said.

"I don't want him to think we don't care if he's just left over there by himself.

"I FaceTimed him and he thought I was my sister, he's very delirious and doesn't know what's going on.

"He's deteriorating quickly and it's his health, it might be fatal."

Mr Corby-Oliver doesn't have travel insurance, which his family is frustrated about.

They've started an online campaign to try to raise the money.
