The Burn Victim, Bill Kapoun

Bill Kapoun, the English teacher who was burned in his fire-trap apartment, has passed away. His burn injuries were just too much.

You can still help: Bill's family still has a buttload of medical bills to pay here in Korea. You can click here for info on how to send a bit of help to the family.

Our thoughts and condolences go out to Bill's family and friends. I'm sure a lot of people are praying for them right now: this story's been all over the Korean expat community, and while I wish it could have ended better, it's heartening to see the expats in Korea stand up and show their measure in caring.
