Doctors to Try Waking Bradford Man After Rhodes Quad-Bike Crash as Family Seeks Funds to Bring Him Home

The family is raising money for a medical flight because he had no travel insurance.

Overview

  • Ethan Jones, 21, remains in a medically induced coma in an ICU on Crete after a quad-bike crash on Rhodes.
  • His brother says doctors plan to remove an intracranial catheter and then attempt to wake him in the coming days.
  • Clinicians cannot judge possible brain injury before he is awake, according to his brother’s account of the medical team’s guidance.
  • His girlfriend’s GoFundMe has passed £23,000 to help pay for transport and care after the family said he lacked travel insurance.
  • She told the Mirror that sedation is being eased and his oxygen support was reduced from 50% to 40%, which suggests he is breathing more on his own.
