Joesph is our eldest daughter’s friend and the St Eugene College, Year 12 College Leader for Identity and Mission.
Sadly, 3 weeks ago Joseph suffered a serious spinal cord injury, during a High Performance Gold Coast Titans U17 rugby league game against the Brisbane Broncos in a pre-season trial at the Gold Coast.
Joe, as known by most, was treated on the field by the club doctor and paramedics before being transported to hospital to treat his catastrophic spinal injury.
He underwent immediate surgery to stabilise his neck and reattach his c4 and c5 to his spine.
Despite the surgery, Joe has suffered major damage to his spinal cord and now faces an enormous battle to be able to regain any movement from his shoulders down.
Let’s show our support for Joe and his family during this difficult time ❤️🩹
