  1. George Soros is a Jew and constant target of antisemites. Especially right wing antisemites. The New York Post is a tabloid rage well known for gross inaccuracies.
  2. https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/doctors/oradee-chandavasu Neonatalogist https://www.bumrungrad.com/en/doctors/prinyarat-burusnukul Pediatric neurologist The second would be best for discussions about long term prognosis for periventricular leukomalacia . The first would be best if they wish to discuss the baby's current management in NICU. Periventricular leukomalacia will not be the only issue given how very premature the baby is. There is no treatment for periventricular leukomalacia as such. As the baby grows, any developmental problems that might be noted would then be treated as appropriate (e.g. physical therapy if needed). Usually would know by around age 2.
  3. And they have removed the premature baby from the NICU and brought it to Thailand??? Or do you mean the brother in law is now in Thsiland and wants to talk to someone, and the baby is still in NICU in India? Without being able to examine the baby not much a doctor here can say. This condition varies greatly in severity and prognosis.
  4. How old is the baby now? Makes a difference in terms of whether to consult a neonatalogist or a pediatric neurologist
  5. Yes, he needs a re-entry permit (if he does nto already have one -- many people get it at time of extension), but that was not the issue in his post. 90 day count does start anew when he re-enters, but he will still have a missed 90 day report for the prior stay of over 90 days. He may get fined for that later on, but it will not be an issue when he leaves the country.
  6. 1. Urease breath test (important to stop PPIs if on them beforehand, preferrably for 2 weeks) 2. Stool test (antigen or PCR. Usally antigen). Not as widely available here as breath test but large hospitals can do. (Ditto re PPI). There is also a blood test (serology) but it is not as accurate as the 2 above and cannot distinguish current from past infection. 3. I seem to remember paying about 2k for urea breath test. I don't know for stool test but might be 1-2 k. (Private hospital rate).
  7. Glad to hear you got it attended to, and in time.
  8. You need to discuss with your pyschiatrist and explain to him that in Thailand only short acting forms of lithium 300 mg are available. Priadel is sustained release so not the same. Your doctor might advise to switch to a different medication or to switch to short acting lithium on a different dosage schedule. In either case, best to make the change and get stabilized on it before moving to Thailand. I think you mean sodium vaproic acid not sodium valpuratte. This is available in Thailand in both immediate and sustained release. It is essential to know exactly what dose and type you are on. While these drugs in Thailand do not require a prescription, you should be under care of a psychiatrist to monitor blood levels and adjust as needed. The best source for that from Hua Hin is the government pysch hospital in Thonburi https://www.somdet.go.th/ It will be about a 2 1/2 drive or bus ride from Hua Hin. Best to use their after hours clinic rather than public channel, the doctors are more senior and in less of a rush.
  9. Public channel is only Mon - Fri. After hours clinic includes Saturdays. After hours costs much more. Also be aware that many treatments are nor available after hours. Mainly you can just do consultation. So depending on what you need you might have to come back during public hours for it. But being seen privately can expedite getting appointment for procedures during publuc hours.
  10. He does not have a digestion problem or GERD. He has an esophageal condition and h. Pylori was found incidentally after endoscopy to dilate a strictured esophagus.
  11. Yes the clock is ticking. To my understanding not possible to get family visa once 18. For the qualifying residence period, always possible to take a gap year or two. For that matter cannot assume time needed to complete secondary studies won't be longer upon switch to UK schools. Indeed unless they have been in very good private schools I would expect it to need 1-2 years additional time, and that is assuming already fluent in English. It is the age if the older child that is the limiting factor here. So unfortunately OP needs to decide one way or the other pretty soon.
  12. I did not say "substantial". Just enough Thais that they can have at least a few Thai friends/classmates. There are middle class neighborhoods in the UK with Thais -- middle class Thais, hardly "rotten hearted hookers". I am staying in one right now.
  13. According to UK gov website no issue until age 18. Below 18, whether age 1 or 16, same same. He will of course have to meet the financials, and wife and each child are a separate visa application. In terms of the kids' adjustment, I would recommend settling in an area with a Thai population, there are a fair number of them.
  14. Having made 2 prior exempt entries is unlikely to be reason for airline refusal to board. Airlines do not usually thumb through prior history. They just refer to IATA listed requirements which are: 1. Return on onward flight within 30 days. (Usual reason for refusal). 2. Passport valudity of at least 6 months and citizen of country eligible for visa exemption.
  15. It takes a month or more to get toxicology results. They can hardly delay that long to notify family of the death.
