The tight-knit community who mourned the loss of Patrick Cronin, the teenager killed while intervening in a pub fight, is facing a new hardship.
Josh Davis 25, is an electrician and among Pat's close mates rallied around the Cronin family and had a tribute to Pat tattooed across his chest.
He was camping alongside the Cronin family and other friends at Corowa recently when some river fun turned to disaster when Josh was thrown into shallow water.
Pat Cronin’s mother was one of the first to the scene and held Josh in the water until paramedics arrived.
Injuries have left Josh without any movement below his shoulders, with damage to his C4 and C5 vertebrae.
He was flown to the Alfred for emergency surgery and remains in intensive care at the Austin.
Now it’s time for the community, too familiar with tragedy, to rally around young Josh.
mycause is able to assist Josh through the charity HELPING A FRIEND IN NEED (HAFIN). The Public Benevolent Institution HAFIN, can issue tax receipts to donors.
