A Perth man critically injured in a serious Bali scooter crash has secured passage back home to Australia. Shane Ramsey, 30, struck a pole while riding in Seminyak on Sunday morning, a day after he was a groomsman at a friend’s wedding. The carpenter from Clarkson suffered a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain and underwent emergency surgery. He remains in a coma in hospital in Kuta where family and friends have remained by his side, waiting for the chance to fly him home.
The flight home is expected to cost at least $150,000 and his parents have flagged they are willing to sell the family home to help cover the mounting expenses. Generous donations have poured into an online fundraiser set up to support the family, with more than $90,000 raised so far. “His family would like to say that they have no words to express their level of gratitude towards all who have donated,” campaign organiser and family friend Amyleigh Mitchell said.
