Update from Sally Catt posted to Facebook on 13 February
"The Goose has flown in!! It was tremendously emotional as I saw him coming into the Alfred hospital- The aspenmedical team, the ambulance man and every member of the hospital staff welcomed me with open arms, while everything was happening around him on the hand over. He was looking so peaceful and I was told he had been incredibly strong throughout this flight (I'd been given grave warnings that flying in his condition was dangerous and he may not make it, hence keeping his return a little under the radar) - again, he has defied the odds.This would not have happened without the local and worldwide love and support he has been receiving during his 3 weeks in a Korean Hospital. Saturday night I attended the most amazing fundraiser at Black Rock Yacht club, which was run by an absolute army of volunteers (whom I'll thank soon on their own fb page)- I have over 2500 donators to thank on the mycause page, which has nearly reached its target of $250,000 - and over time I'll be thanking you all. As Angus flew in, Henry, his cousin was running an ultra-marathon round a park in London, as a fundraiser (strava told us his heart rate went up when he was passed on the news of angus's arrival!).
I can't thank Avcair enough for being so caring and kind and keeping me updated with every detail of his flight (route changes due cyclones in darwin, 14h on the tarmac in Indonesia due to debris on the runway ripping up the tyres- Shaun you are a legend for keeping it all happening-get some sleep mate!)".
