A young boy from Perth, only eight years old, found himself in a terrifying situation after a quadbike accident in Bali left him fighting for his life. But now, after a miraculous journey, he has returned home to familiar soil. Accompanied by doctors from Perth, Joshua Schutez arrived in his hometown this afternoon on a mercy flight.
Upon arrival, he was immediately taken to Perth Children's Hospital where he will continue his treatment. It has been a traumatic few days for Joshua, who suffered a severe head injury when the quadbike he was riding with his brother flipped over on Wednesday. The situation was dire and he had to undergo emergency surgery at a hospital in Denpasar. Since then, he has been in an induced coma, with his family and friends anxiously waiting for any signs of improvement.
In a heartwarming display of support, family friends launched a fundraiser to help with the overwhelming hospital bills. The response has been overwhelming, with over $90,000 raised so far. It's a testament to the strong community spirit and generosity of people during times of need.
Joshua's scheduled trip to Bali was meant to be for a soccer tournament, but now, his team will be playing in his honor as they pray for his full recovery. It's a bittersweet moment for his loved ones, who are grateful for his safe return, but also worried about his ongoing health.
