Now his caring daughter needs your help.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

17 May 2024 – <\/em>Johan Galtung \u2013 my dear mentor, colleague, TFF Associate and friend over 50 years \u2013 died on February 17, this year in Norway, his native country.<\/p>\n

Sadly, he did not die in a way he \u2013 or anybody else for that matter \u2013 should have a right to a humane welfare state, i.e. with the best treatment and with dignity.<\/p>\n

Over an extended period of time, his daughter, Irene, cared lovingly day and night for him until he was taken away from her home and care against his expressed will. She was met by systematic and difficult obstacles from her surroundings.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The fact is that she paid more than money for her noble efforts, and she is now burdened with large lawyer fees she cannot pay.<\/p>\n

Dag Poleszynski<\/em> in Oslo is a friend and former peace researcher whom I have known for as long as I knew Johan. He, too, was a friend of Johan for 50 years and followed his struggles to the very end, something I did not do as I live far away. \u2028\u2028Dag and I have decided to help Irene raise money to pay her debts and regain some security in her life.<\/p>\n

Irene went broke helping Johan, using up all her savings on him, paying for his pharmacy supplies, housing, transportation, medicine, food, etc.<\/p>\n

This is all explained in the text that introduces this appeal on GoFundMe<\/a>. Click on the link, read the heartbreaking report about Johan\u2019s last days and \u2013 please \u2013 do a good deed today in his honour and to appreciate Irene\u2019s remarkable efforts.<\/p>\n
