Bethany's Recovery

On July 4th 2016, Bethany was involved in a serious car accident while on the way to netball training. Bethany sustained life threatening injuries and was air lifted to The Alfred Hospital where she spent 2 weeks in ICU in an induced coma. She was then moved to the neurological ward to continue her care and recovery but still remains in a coma.  It has been a turbulent time for the family but Bethany has fought, and continues to fight, everything that has been thrown at her so far. She is such a strong girl! Since the accident, the love and support of so many people has been amazing for Bethany's family and has allowed them to be by her side everyday as a source of love and strength. I believe the support that has been shown is a true reflection of how many people Bethany has touched during her life so far. I am Bethany's aunt and the reason for setting up this fund is in reponse to the many people who have contacted me regarding wanting to help financially. While Bethany's parents, Mary and Brenden, have not asked for any financial support, after speaking to some of you, it was decided that a fund set up for Bethany would be the best way to go. This fund will allow any of you who have been wanting to help Bethany financially, to do so. While we don't know what is ahead for Bethany at this stage, I do know that there will be things she may need or want further down the road in her recovery and these funds will be used to help purchase these. Along with Bethany's family, I am so grateful for the support that has already been shown by so many of you in many different ways and the love that continues to be sent to Bethany and her family during this time. Thankyou!
