Hi @jasond.2091 Thanks for sharing your kind wishes!

John is tougher than the naysayers gave him credit. Many a man would have buckled under similar circumstances. Two strokes on record and still plugging on? He’s a hero in my book. Thank you Paul for bringing the human being that you are. It’s the Christian creed to look out for others and you are holding up your end of the bargain. 🙏🏻

John is a success story. Hold your head high and proud. Few could follow through like John has.

Anyone can have struggles in life. However you don't have to let your struggles define you. John did an amazing job. I always enjoy seeing people make it. I am happy for John and his family. Good on you brother!

I'm so happy that John returned! - Please watch out for your partner's family. They treated you like crap when you ran out of money. Now that you do have money they might try to 'sweet up' to you again.... Don't buy it! Please protect yourself this time from the psychological hell they put you through last time... Wishing you the best of luck moving foreword. Peace brother.

Wow! It's been 3 1/2 years now? Time flies. Just like Gen. McArthur, Expat John kept his words and returned with more ammunition. Lol Thank you Paul, Roy and the gang for saving an American and his family.

Good for John . No matter what mistakes he made, proved he was no dead beat father. A solid person imo

I was highly critical of John’s choices and help given due to his mistakes. Then I realized that we all make mistakes and some are minor and some are colossal. So now I just wish John the best and he’s so blessed to have Paul and all Paul’s supporters coming together

It’s really weird that you made this video now. I was just thinking about expat John the other day and wondering how he’s doing. Thank you for sharing this with us. Take care.

Well done John. God bless all those people who supported Paul and John!

Hi @michaelcassidy1864 Well said!

From probably the lowest point of his life, he made such a rather impressive self-rehabilitation and recovery. I guess most of us were somewhat skeptical if he would even be able to support himself. He proved to be a survivor and overcomer. Praise God.

I am very impressed and proud of John. I actually didn't think he could commit as much as he did. I'm so happy things turned out as well as they did, and I am praying that he and his wife and children have a very happy and prosperous life.❤️🤗🙏

Paul, my highest respect to you for using your channel to network and especially helping your fellow Americans. It was a huge success story. You and Q Adventures are real patriots! Keep doing what you are doin and please dont get tired of helping. It is very important that all expats or Americans married to Filipina should have a strong support system whatever part of the Philippines. Filipina are the best wives in the world. I know that for sure.. but it is sometimes there are people will take advantage and heartless human beings to put down others..crab mentality syndrome. Thank you to you!! Thank you for helping also Q adventures to help the senior man to go back to London because of your networks you were able to help the old man fix his social security problem. I hope many more expats and american will have a sense of Band of Brothers mindset like you Paul and the Q adventures. Maraming salamat at Mabuhay kayong lahat!
