Help us support Josh and his family ❤️
Hawke's Bay
As some of you may have heard our beloved josh was life flighted to wellington hospital on the 25th of August after a pedestrian vs car accident outside whakatu where he is still currently in ICU due to the extent of his injuries.
Josh is from hawkes bay where all his family are local too. The most important person in his life being his 7 year old daughter and not to mention the love he has for his parents, 3 sisters, niece and nephews and all others that he considers family.
Josh has a very long and slow road ahead of him and due to his current extensive medical needs he is needing to be under the care of specialized treatment in wellington ICU.
This page has been started to support the travel and accommodations costs associated with being able to have family at his bedside at all times until further notice as well as supporting his daughter and family where necessary.
As we get updates on his progress we will continue to update everyone.
Josh is my brother

Small steps closer ❤️ 12 September 2024
We all know Josh is not one to give up easily, he continues to fight and surprise us every day in his recovery, and this week has been one of the biggest ones by far.
Our biggest wish from the start was being able to have Josh well enough and stable enough to be able to be closer to home and continue his recovery journey with all his extended family around him.
As a family we are happy to say that Josh is one step closer, he has been stepped down from Wellington ICU on Tuesday and we were fortunate enough to be able to have him be transferred back home to Hawke’s Bay. Josh is still in ICU here but small steps are the best ones taken. On top of now being closer to home Josh has also been taken off his breathing supports early Wednesday and is now breathing all by himself for the first time in 17 days!
We know we still have a very long recovery ahead of us, but we will take the small wins as they come.
Lastly we want to say thank you again to all the support everyone has shown our family in the past weeks, we know we have a long road ahead but the community support and outreach we have had only makes us believe that we will never be alone on this journey.
We do still ask that people respect family wishes to not have visitors currently as everyday is a big one and we continue to process new information as it comes.
